Tasting Notes

Producing WhiskyCast has given me the opportunity to taste some really amazing whiskies, and I’m pleased to share my tasting notes with you here. You can search my entire database of tasting notes from this page, and I hope you’ll find it useful.

Redbreast 12 Cask Strength

Country: Ireland

Region:

Type: Irish Pot Still

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 57.7%

Score: 94 Points

This is the classic Redbreast 12 with the volume cranked up to 11. The nose is warm and inviting with no burn, mild spices, apricot, plum, and nuts, and a hint of oakiness. Taste: Thick and intensely spicy with a wave of cinnamon and hint of peatiness underneath. Lemon peel, honey, and oak notes add balance. Finish: Long and smooth with a consistent and well-balanced fading of the notes from the taste. Outstanding.
