The Redbreast Mano a Lámh All Sherry Limited Edition is a highly coveted single pot still whiskey from the renowned Midleton Distillery in Ireland. With a limited release of only 2000 bottles in February 2015, this edition was exclusively available to members of the Birdhouse website, making it a true collector's item. Bottled at 46% ABV and presented in a distinctive hessian sack, this whiskey comes with accompanying paperwork and, in some listings, a Birdhouse pin. The condition of the bottle and sack is described as new or nearly new, and some listings may even guarantee the sack's condition. Unlike many sherry-matured whiskeys that tend to be overly sweet, the Mano a Lámh surprises with its balanced profile, boasting earthy and spicy notes that complement its sherry maturation. The nose is rich with dark fruits such as ripe red grapes, blackberries, currants, and dried figs, dates, and raisins, along with fine spicy, leathery, and earthy nuances. On the palate, it delivers a strong, full-bodied, and pot still-spicy experience, leaning towards tart dried fruit rather than being sherry-dominant. Light spiciness from licorice and white pepper adds complexity to the taste. The finish is long and full of spices, echoing the earthy and leathery notes from the nose. Distillery tasting notes also highlight the deep dried fruit notes of raisins and sultanas, balanced with pot still spices like dill and black pepper, and the contribution of toasted Spanish oak. The taste is described as silky smooth and deceptively sweet, with rich ripe dark fruit and the leisurely emergence of signature spices. The finish sees the rich fruit slowly giving way to the perfections of the Spanish oak.
Only 2000 bottles were released in this limited edition, making it a rare find.
The ABV of this whiskey is 46%.
This limited edition whiskey was released in February 2015.
No, Mano a Lámh has no age statement to allow the Master Blender, Billy Leighton, the freedom to choose from a range of ages to achieve the desired profile. However, the youngest whiskey used is 13 years old.
Redbreast Mano a Lámh All Sherry Limited Edition is a truly special whiskey that stands out for its balanced profile and rich complexity. The earthy and spicy notes complement the sherry maturation beautifully, making it a delightful and unique addition to any collection. Despite its limited availability and high price, it offers a rewarding experience for those lucky enough to taste it. This is a whiskey that evolves with time and oxygen contact, revealing even more depth and character, making it a must-try for any serious whiskey enthusiast.
