Last summer we toured Ireland.. I found the 21 year at the Jameson Midleton store for 200 and the 27 year for 400. My son called the experience "Disneyland for Dads"...couldn't agree more.
KURT!!! TRENTON!!! This might be the best video EVER!!! I love a good Irish Whiskey!!! I can imagine how good these were!! I've GOT to try a bottle of Redbreast!!! Great review!!! CHEERS!!!!
One of my favorite videos from you guys. Love when Kurt tries new things and especially things he isn’t inclined to like. Keep up this kind of series for different whiskeys w Trent!
I started with bourbon on my whiskey journey, but I have come to prefer Irish whiskey over bourbon over the years. I prefer how much smoother Irish whiskey is.
I like the fact that you guys go through the differences between the mash, the still, the proofs, and the pricing. Gives a great overall view of the differences of what you're drinking.
Great video! Love redbreast Irish whiskey from the moment I tried it in Ireland randomly. Ive had 3 of those so far on the table . Been wanting to try the cask strength and now Im even more excited to try it. Thanks for the time you put into these videos. I truly enjoy them and no one out there does it like you guys!
Redbreast 15 is my favorite Irish whiskey too. I’ve tried the 27 … and dearly love it. But it was a celebratory pour from a friend who owns an Irish pub. Green Spot is my every day drinker!!
Loved this one! Very nice rundown of the various offerings from Redbreast. I have been interested in trying something from them but had no idea where to start. This gives me a great bit of knowledge to use when I go to the liquor store to pick up a bottle. Since my previous experience with Irish whiskey has just been the basic Jamesons and Bushmills, I am really looking forward to getting a bottle of Redbreast and enjoying it. Thanks for a great video!!!
This was great fun. Awesome seeing Trent's first time trying RB. Lustau is my absolute favorite irish. Would definitely love to see you guys go through the Spots as well.
Personally I would love to see your guys take on Irish whiskeys. I bought Red Breast 12 on your recommendation and I think it was the perfect first bottle for my Irish whiskey collection. Please keep these coming guys and thank you for what you do!
Love the video gents!! I’m a massive fan of the red breast line, though never ventured(afforded) the 2 high age bottles. The PX finish is phenomenal too, from what I hear! It’s great to see you range to other whisky from time to time.
Awesome video... Redbreast is my wife's favorite daily sipper; We got a bottle of the 27 in Ireland for our anniversary, and wow we couldn't agree more with the description. It is so unique; we call it dried fruit cake, ripened stone fruit, grapefruit deliciousness. Thank you for the video, we really enjoyed it!
Great video. Love it when yall do different types of whiskeys. Redbreast is one of the best product lines of any distiller. Redbreast 15 and the 12 cask strength are both in my top three of just enjoyable whiskeys to drink.
Kurt, you recommended Redbreast to me some time back, and I have kept it in mind ever since. Now I have to add RB 12 Cask Strength based on Trenton's reaction. I tend to be a proof hound as well. It was really interesting and helpful to see you guys go through the whole lineup. Thanks!
As others have said, great video! Big fan of Red Breast 12, the only one from this line-up that I have had. On the lookout though for the Cask Strength. Saw a 15 locally for $190 which is above my price point. I like how went vertically with whiskeys from one distillery. Need to do that more with others,
Great video! Love bourbon, but having videos like these expose me to new pours outside my usual. Would love to keep seeing videos like these or Scotch or Japanese Whisky, too. The education side is great as well!
This is by far my favorite video that you’ve made! Perhaps I’m a bit biased having Redbreast be my favorite Whiskey brand. But I absolutely love Single Pot Still Whiskeys with Sherry a maturation! It’d be lovely if you can do the entire Spot line up eventually. - Even if it’s only the Core Colors (Green, Yellow, Red, Blue, Gold)!!
Really enjoyed watching this. Thanks, Kurt, for continuing to share your knowledge and excitement for Irish whiskey! We're becoming huge fans of Redbreast and many others.
Love the 12 & 21... hope to get a 15 & 27 in the near future. I just find the layers of flavors the Redbreast bottles provide are well worth the price of admission. Thank you for the comprehensive review of these wonderful burds!
I'm in Alabama and recently purchased the 12yr CS (which I have bought before) and the 15yr (first time purchase) they were $100 and $140 respectively. I prefer the CS myself. As usual great video guys, thanks for the content!
Hey I’m just getting in bourbon and whiskey and love your guys content and found it very helpful! Maybe could do a video reviewing some American made potstill products.
Great video. I've come to really like Irish Whiskey. I've tried the 12 and own the 15, and it is great. I have to get some others. Please do a video on the Spots! That would be awesome.
Look at Kurt come alive, he loves this stuff 👍🏼 More videos on affordable Irish and Scotch is great. It needs to be affordable for me to step out from bourbon, don’t want to pay a lot when I don’t know how much I will like it.
For scotch intros, Balvenie 12 double wood is a moderately priced option. But the bottle I recommend to everyone is the Bunnahabhain 12. Kurt mentioned the 18 as the “scotch to impress”. It’s not peated, and has a nice toffee impression so you won’t get that turpentine scent, as people often say about Islays. It is more expensive but I promise if you already drink whiskey, you won’t regret it.
Tried them all but the 27. The 15 is also my favorite. Redbreast was the first Irish whisky I tried. Drank many others Irish after but Redbreast is my favorite. Great video guys. Thanks for the good time.
There’s a 32 Dream cask I’ve seen reviewed and the guy said it cost them only $800. A friggin steal for the age statement. And yes the 15 man oh man, I didn’t get to get the 12 small batch or cask but the baking spices on the 15 just hit different. I still do 12 but whenever I see a 15, worth it
Great video. I love Irish Whiskey, and have been fortunate enough to have visited Ireland often, which has led to many great tasting experiences. If Trenton enjoys the silky mouthfeel, wait 'til he tastes Yellow Spot. My regular to sip is Writer's Tears and for cocktails, Teeling Small Batch. And definitely enjoy Red Breast. Slainte!
This could be one of the best reviews ever boys! Love the Red Breast 12 Cask Strength…one of my favorite Irish whiskeys of all. Would be great to see a Spot review in the future! Cheers!
I could absolutely go for a strawberry toaster stroodle! Used to have those as a kid with my dad and they were the best. Now I'm going to have to investigate redbreast Irish whiskey, thanks guys! Great video
I'm so glad that you did this video. Redbreast is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE Irish Whisky! Before the tariffs took effect, I could get a bottle of the 12 yr for $35 on sale. Now it's approximately $60 on sale in my area. I'm soooo glad I bought 3 bottles back when I did! 👍 After hearing your reviews of the other bottles, I may have to add one or two of them to my collection. Thank you!
Great show guys. I don't own any Irish Whiskey so this was educational for me. I tend to gauge Trent's reactions because we seem to have similar palates, so like him, I might be inclined to purchase one of these should I come across it. Keep up the great work. Cheers.
The cask strength is easily the best value, and possibly the best tasting one on the list. Butterscotch comes through lightly, and it'll hit you with shortbread cookies with a little nuttiness, and it goes through a dark fruit phase, too. Beautiful whiskey, and easy to find
The Redbreast has always been a favorite. I don’t mind 80 proof so the 12 is usually open. I do definitely prefer the 15 to the cask strength though. Thanks for one in my wheelhouse!!
The 21 up here in Canada was extremely hard to find and when I finally did ran me $400 CAD. The 27 was actually easier if you can believe that, and was $800 CAD. The 27 might be my favorite whisky, in any category of all time. It's next level with flavor and complexity!
Being new to whiskey, I really enjoyed my bottle of Redbreast 12yr. OHLQ prices for Redbreast - 12yr = $64.99, Lustau = $79.99, 12yr Cask = $99.99, 15yr = $129.99, 21yr = $379.99, and 27yr = $649.99. Got to love the .99 on each bottle. Great video and looking forward to the live show on Friday!
Love the 12-Year and would love to try the Cask Strength and 27-Year. My favorite Irish bar serves the 12-, 15- and 21-Year; Virginia ABC only sells the 12-, 21- and 27-Year.
Got to enjoy the 27 this past Monday evening. All i can say is wow! I wanted to lick the glass when it was empty. I'm done. it's going to be hard to top that! Great vid boys!!
Great work gentlemen. Love the Redbreast lineup. Since Trent likes the Cask Strength whiskey….it may be hard to find….but Blue Spot is an excellent example. Give it a try if you can.
I really, really Enjoyed this Video! Redbreast is by far my most favourite Whisky’s in the World! And I have tried a wide range! So Happy you two made this video! Love it!
Definitely do a video of the spots. Big fan of the Gold, Red, and Yellow spot. Also would be nice to see some Midleton, Powers, and Bushmills reviews as well.
From the 27y, I get all sorts of tropical fruits such as mango, papaya and passion fruit...Wrapped in walnuts, and chili on the finish. Nose is just pure stone fruit. Such a great pour
I bought Redbreast 12 only thanks to your recommendation. Very pleasantly surprised. I think you guys should do a scotch sherry bomb flight/review. Tamdhu, Bunnahabhain, Aberlour, etc.
Wonderful assessment. Would love to see Japanese whisky next. Yamazaki 12 has been an intriguing complement recently to my bourbon-heavy rotation. Cheers!
Please keep up the great reviews and by the way you have an awesome bar set up. Over time I have come to prefer Irish single pot still whiskey. Budget in mind, in my area RB 12 $70 (honey and fruiter notes) and Powers John's Lane $60 (vanilla, honey and black pepper notes) never disappoint. For what it's worth I usually have a few unsalted peanuts or walnuts before tasting a whiskey and think it helps the first sip taste better.
I love Redbreast. Cask Strength 12 year is a mainstay and I'm finishing up my bottle of the PX Edition (highly recommend it for around $100-$110). Maybe I'll splurge on 21 someday.
Redbreast is good. The standard 12-year is a staple of bars, and it is a good warm-up or palate cleanser. I have the 12-year cask strength at home, and I've also tried the 15. They are all good, and I would love to try some of the others. If you want to spend some money, the Midleton Very Rare line-up has some good options. I have one of the cask strength versions that is finished in new Irish oak. I've never had anything else quite like it.
What timing on this vid! Last week I bought my first bottle of Irish Whiskey and I picked up the Cask Strength Redbreast 12 year for $77.99 on sale. It was priced at $109.99 and my local BevMo in SoCal and it was the last bottle in a locked case. Had to grab it for $77.99. Would enjoy to see you guys do a vid on Scotch as well. I also picked up my first Scotch bottle which is Tamdhu (had a pour a speakeasy) which is aged sherry oak casks and is delicious. I still enjoy bourbon and American whiskey overall better, but it's nice to change it up once in a while.
Tullamore Dew is my favorite budget Irish whiskey; IMO so much better than that one that every bar seems to serve. However, Redbreast is definitely my favorite when I feel like splurging a bit. I have the 12 year, which I really enjoy; it gets poured on St. Patrick's Day. But I see now that I need to grab either a 12 yr CS or 15 yr that I've been contemplating for a while. Thanks for the review.
Love this episode and it inspired me to go out and buy a bottle of Trenton's favorite Cask Strength and Kurt's favorite 15 year! You should definitely do a review on more Irish whiskey like the spots or even the Jameson lineup! Would love to see a video on Japanese whiskey to learn about them!
I have only had the 12 and the 12 cask strength but the cask strength is definitely one of the top three whiskeys for me. It's so damn good. If I ever get the chance I will be buying some of the other bottles for sure.
Always happy for you guys to branch out. I have limited background, but I am w/Kurt in that I tend to favor the pot-stilled Irish stuff. Would welcome the Japanese tasting...
Kurt & Trenton, Great review of one of the best Irish whiskey's.. I have the 12-27 as well, each have that butter cookie, and cereal base. The 12 is like Christmas cake in a glass, and Cask Strength is so hard to beat. The 15, is a great after dinner dram, a very underrated pour. The 21 has peaches & guava exploding out of the glencarin. The 27 is on another level, one of the best noses ever. Lots of dark berries & jam notes. Here in Canada 🇨🇦 it sells for $700.00 plus our 12% taxes. Cheers guys, enjoy your channel from Canada. You should do an episode on Canadian Club Chronicles Series aged 41-45 years. I have each and they are an experience. Cheers 🍻, Jor-El
The lustau is fantastic. I actually didn't care for it the first time I tried it, but when my palette developed, I could pick out the fruits and the almond. It's delicious.
Great video and review. Red Breast is one of my favorites. I have 27 year, spent $499.00 on it. It sits on my shelf and will be opened when I have my first grand child. One bottle you are missing; there is a Red Breast Kentucky Oak Edition 101 proof. Fantastic pour. Would love for you to do a Spot review as well.
Really like y 10 year Red Breast. Current prices in Oregon for Red Breast are: 10 yr 69.95, 12 yr 99.95, 15 yr 139,95, 21 yr 399.95. The 27 yr is not available. Think I'll stick with the 10 year but the 15 is tempting. Great review.
Love the review of Irish, always fun to see bourbon drinkers reactions to “malt whiskies. We are tasting through a bunch of Irish whiskies at different age ranges this month, and got to say as a bourbon drinker, I am liking them more than I would have thought.
I havent drank irish whiskey in years. Even then it was jameson, jameson 18, and i cant remember if i had any others. St. Patricks day i tried high and wicked, north cross i think it was (it was pretty good), and green spot, which i really liked. I been wanting to try more irish whiskeys, redbreast being one of them.
Last summer we toured Ireland.. I found the 21 year at the Jameson Midleton store for 200 and the 27 year for 400. My son called the experience "Disneyland for Dads"...couldn't agree more.
KURT!!! TRENTON!!! This might be the best video EVER!!! I love a good Irish Whiskey!!! I can imagine how good these were!! I've GOT to try a bottle of Redbreast!!! Great review!!! CHEERS!!!!
Well, tell the people where you live I’m sure they’re willing to share.
Redbreast is worth the money if you’ve never had it.
Definitely worth it! If just starting, the 12 year is a good entry point.
@@gregorycarpenter7260 Nice!!! I'll def keep an eye out!!! Thanks!!!
@@jeffreybessent3591 I'm def springing for this!!! Thanks!!!

Great video! What an amazing lineup of RedBreast! I was fortunate to try the RB 27 and it truly is a one if kind!
love the interactions between you guys. Keep em coming.
Great video! Keep these videos coming. It's a great idea.
Love Irish Whiskey. Need to do Jameson and Powers next. Can’t go wrong with Redbreast 12 yr.
Love the 12 & 21... hope to get a 15 & 27 in the near future. I just find the layers of flavors the Redbreast bottles provide are well worth the price of admission. Thank you for the comprehensive review of these wonderful burds!
15 is great, I got it a few years ago in Ohio for a great price. 27 and Tawny Port and Kentucky Oak are on my to find list here.
I'm in Alabama and recently purchased the 12yr CS (which I have bought before) and the 15yr (first time purchase) they were $100 and $140 respectively. I prefer the CS myself. As usual great video guys, thanks for the content!

Great video thank you! Please do one on the Japanese whiskeys.
Redbreast 12 Cask Strength is one of my favorite whiskies of any type. The Redbreast Lustau is pretty special too.
I’d LOVE to see a video on Japanese whiskey (whisky?)!
Great video, as always. Bourbon is my favorite category, too, but there are also plenty of Irish and Scotch whisk(e)ys that I really enjoy.
Tried them all but the 27. The 15 is also my favorite. Redbreast was the first Irish whisky I tried. Drank many others Irish after but Redbreast is my favorite. Great video guys. Thanks for the good time.

Yes, the cask strength just amps up those fruit flavors, but doesn't come in too hot.
Great video look forward to the spots next
I could absolutely go for a strawberry toaster stroodle! Used to have those as a kid with my dad and they were the best. Now I'm going to have to investigate redbreast Irish whiskey, thanks guys! Great video
I love the Redbreast and I have only had the 12 year! Plan on picking up a 15 someday!
Can't wait for next Friday! I'm going to be in the mountains of NC just relaxing and enjoying what I can find at the local ABC for the live stream.
I'm so glad that you did this video. Redbreast is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE Irish Whisky! Before the tariffs took effect, I could get a bottle of the 12 yr for $35 on sale. Now it's approximately $60 on sale in my area. I'm soooo glad I bought 3 bottles back when I did! 👍
After hearing your reviews of the other bottles, I may have to add one or two of them to my collection. Thank you!
Why were Tariffs even ever started??
The UK has tarrifs that double the prices of US imports. As I understand it the US raised its own tariff to match.
Great video, I’m been wondering about Red Breast. Looking for some 15 year, thanks
Great show guys. O really like Jameson right out of the bottle neat. However my new favorite is the Redbreast 12. Thanks
Great show guys. I don't own any Irish Whiskey so this was educational for me. I tend to gauge Trent's reactions because we seem to have similar palates, so like him, I might be inclined to purchase one of these should I come across it. Keep up the great work. Cheers.
The cask strength is easily the best value, and possibly the best tasting one on the list. Butterscotch comes through lightly, and it'll hit you with shortbread cookies with a little nuttiness, and it goes through a dark fruit phase, too. Beautiful whiskey, and easy to find
Try the Bushmills Peaky Blinders Prohibition.
The Redbreast has always been a favorite. I don’t mind 80 proof so the 12 is usually open. I do definitely prefer the 15 to the cask strength though. Thanks for one in my wheelhouse!!
YES! Do the Spots next! Love Irish whiskey and great to see it get some spot...light
Redbreast 12 Cask Strength is one of my fav whiskies and I compare closely to Nikka Whisky from the Barrel but different. Fun video guys!
The 21 up here in Canada was extremely hard to find and when I finally did ran me $400 CAD. The 27 was actually easier if you can believe that, and was $800 CAD. The 27 might be my favorite whisky, in any category of all time. It's next level with flavor and complexity!
Canada sucks those prices are ridiculous
@@Lou45833 We have to pay for our 15hr Emergency room wait times somehow. 🤡🤡
I just seen the 15 year here in Canada. It was $147 couldn't quite get myself to buy it, but I'll probably splurge some day soon here lol
I have been thinking of getting a bottle of Red Breast. This video came out a the right time. Thanks!
Being new to whiskey, I really enjoyed my bottle of Redbreast 12yr. OHLQ prices for Redbreast - 12yr = $64.99, Lustau = $79.99, 12yr Cask = $99.99, 15yr = $129.99, 21yr = $379.99, and 27yr = $649.99. Got to love the .99 on each bottle. Great video and looking forward to the live show on Friday!
Love the 12-Year and would love to try the Cask Strength and 27-Year. My favorite Irish bar serves the 12-, 15- and 21-Year; Virginia ABC only sells the 12-, 21- and 27-Year.
I have a 12 year and have been keeping my eyes open for any other offerings that hit my area. Great episode guys!
Got to enjoy the 27 this past Monday evening. All i can say is wow! I wanted to lick the glass when it was empty. I'm done. it's going to be hard to top that! Great vid boys!!
I would like to see the Spot Irish Whiskeys review! Thanks for the great videos
Great work gentlemen. Love the Redbreast lineup. Since Trent likes the Cask Strength whiskey….it may be hard to find….but Blue Spot is an excellent example. Give it a try if you can.
I really, really Enjoyed this Video! Redbreast is by far my most favourite Whisky’s in the World! And I have tried a wide range! So Happy you two made this video! Love it!
Definitely do a video of the spots. Big fan of the Gold, Red, and Yellow spot. Also would be nice to see some Midleton, Powers, and Bushmills reviews as well.
Love the father and son dynamic. You guys are awesome!
All I can say is I love you two.
That and because of you I bought a bottle of the 12yr CS and just love it.
Great video guys. If you can find it, I highly recommend the PX
It is fantastic. Red Breast makes a wonderful product
Redbreast PX is amazing
My go to Irish whiskey line. Great video guys!
Redbreast was the first bottle I drank neat and still is one of my favorites.
Freaking Awesome video boys! I have everything but the 21 & 27 and love them all…. 12 year cask strength is the bomb!
From the 27y, I get all sorts of tropical fruits such as mango, papaya and passion fruit...Wrapped in walnuts, and chili on the finish. Nose is just pure stone fruit. Such a great pour
Bring on the spot whiskeys and more Irish whiskey. What are you guys waiting for?
There are Irish rye whiskies. Like Kilbeggan small batch rye and powers 100% rye. Trenton may want to taste them.
I bought Redbreast 12 only thanks to your recommendation. Very pleasantly surprised. I think you guys should do a scotch sherry bomb flight/review. Tamdhu, Bunnahabhain, Aberlour, etc.
Really enjoyed this episode.....looks like i need to broaden my horizon and try some new Irish Whiskeys. Thanks Kurt and Trenton 😂😂😂
Thanks for covering some Irish whiskeys! Consider one with the Spot whiskeys. Thx!
Wonderful assessment. Would love to see Japanese whisky next. Yamazaki 12 has been an intriguing complement recently to my bourbon-heavy rotation. Cheers!
Loved the show!! Red breast my favorite! Please do more like this: The Spots, etc! Would love to see you take on them!
The RB 12 Yr cask strength is phenomenal 🥰 Love seeing Trenton (Matt Damon) discover how great these are. Love it!!!
Please keep up the great reviews and by the way you have an awesome bar set up. Over time I have come to prefer Irish single pot still whiskey. Budget in mind, in my area RB 12 $70 (honey and fruiter notes) and Powers John's Lane $60 (vanilla, honey and black pepper notes) never disappoint. For what it's worth I usually have a few unsalted peanuts or walnuts before tasting a whiskey and think it helps the first sip taste better.
I love Redbreast. Cask Strength 12 year is a mainstay and I'm finishing up my bottle of the PX Edition (highly recommend it for around $100-$110). Maybe I'll splurge on 21 someday.

I have one of the cask strength versions that is finished in new Irish oak. I've never had anything else quite like it.
Redbreast is my favorite Irish Whiskey too. I waffle between Cask Strength 12 and 15 as which I would prefer, so I just keep both stocked, haha.
What timing on this vid! Last week I bought my first bottle of Irish Whiskey and I picked up the Cask Strength Redbreast 12 year for $77.99 on sale.

I also picked up my first Scotch bottle which is Tamdhu (had a pour a speakeasy) which is aged sherry oak casks and is delicious. I still enjoy bourbon and American whiskey overall better, but it's nice to change it up once in a while.
Tullamore Dew is my favorite budget Irish whiskey; IMO so much better than that one that every bar seems to serve. However, Redbreast is definitely my favorite when I feel like splurging a bit. I have the 12 year, which I really enjoy; it gets poured on St. Patrick's Day. But I see now that I need to grab either a 12 yr CS or 15 yr that I've been contemplating for a while. Thanks for the review.
Would love to see a Spot whiskey review. I just got a bottle of their Green Spot Chateau Montelena, and it is one of my favorite whiskey's now.
Great episode! I would love to sample that 27 someday, but $600 is rough.
Great Show. Been looking at Irish but haven’t bought one yet.
Love this episode and it inspired me to go out and buy a bottle of Trenton's favorite Cask Strength and Kurt's favorite 15 year!
You should definitely do a review on more Irish whiskey like the spots or even the Jameson lineup! Would love to see a video on Japanese whiskey to learn about them!
We will!
Caskmates Stout edition is *THE ONLY* Jameson worth drinking (unless you’re mixing….in that case go with the entry level lowest price offering)
Love Irish Whiskey and love Redbreast! Thanks for going there and looking forward to more!
Red Breast 12yr is a must have in any collection!! Great stuff
I absolutely love the 12. I tried a pour of the 27 year and was disappointed. Looking to try the 12 call strength and 15.
Great review, Red Breast is my favorite Irish whisky.
I have only had the 12 and the 12 cask strength but the cask strength is definitely one of the top three whiskeys for me. It's so damn good. If I ever get the chance I will be buying some of the other bottles for sure.
Always happy for you guys to branch out. I have limited background, but I am w/Kurt in that I tend to favor the pot-stilled Irish stuff. Would welcome the Japanese tasting...
Kurt & Trenton,
Great review of one of the best Irish whiskey's.. I have the 12-27 as well, each have that butter cookie, and cereal base. The 12 is like Christmas cake in a glass, and Cask Strength is so hard to beat. The 15, is a great after dinner dram, a very underrated pour. The 21 has peaches & guava exploding out of the glencarin. The 27 is on another level, one of the best noses ever. Lots of dark berries & jam notes.
Here in Canada 🇨🇦 it sells for $700.00 plus our 12% taxes. Cheers guys, enjoy your channel from Canada.
You should do an episode on Canadian Club Chronicles Series aged 41-45 years. I have each and they are an experience.
Cheers 🍻,
Jor-El
Id love to see a video comparing the spots as well. Or a japanese episode since yall have a good collection
The lustau is fantastic. I actually didn't care for it the first time I tried it, but when my palette developed, I could pick out the fruits and the almond. It's delicious.
Please try the Lustau Brandy de Jerez. Deliskus.
I loved it from the first sip. It's so caramely and silky, silky smooth to me. For the price, in Ohio ($70), I'm for sure getting another bottle.
Great video and review. Red Breast is one of my favorites. I have 27 year, spent $499.00 on it. It sits on my shelf and will be opened when I have my first grand child. One bottle you are missing; there is a Red Breast Kentucky Oak Edition 101 proof. Fantastic pour. Would love for you to do a Spot review as well.
That’s the one I wasn’t a fan of. I miss the Sherry typically in Redbreast.
I've never tried Redbreast. Actually went to Dublin and brought home some other whiskeys, but wasn't aware of this one. now i *must* try it
I haven’t tried Redbreast or any of the Spots yet. Living vicariously through you on this one.
Really like y 10 year Red Breast. Current prices in Oregon for Red Breast are: 10 yr 69.95, 12 yr 99.95, 15 yr 139,95, 21 yr 399.95. The 27 yr is not available. Think I'll stick with the 10 year but the 15 is tempting. Great review.
Love the review of Irish, always fun to see bourbon drinkers reactions to “malt whiskies. We are tasting through a bunch of Irish whiskies at different age ranges this month, and got to say as a bourbon drinker, I am liking them more than I would have thought.
I havent drank irish whiskey in years. Even then it was jameson, jameson 18, and i cant remember if i had any others. St. Patricks day i tried high and wicked, north cross i think it was (it was pretty good), and green spot, which i really liked. I been wanting to try more irish whiskeys, redbreast being one of them.
