The 2nd expression from the Redbreast Iberian Series.
-
It"™s no secret that Redbreast owes a great deal of its character to the Iberian peninsula, and the sun
- drenched bodegas of Spain and Portugal. This time, Redbreasts adoration for their southern collaborators is pointed at Tawny Port, and the sun
- kissed fruit notes of this celebrated Portuguese fortified wine.
-
Each expression from the Iberian Series celebrates the Lustau Edition side of the Redbreast family, exploring the casks, flavours and aromas of this region.
-
Tawny Port Edition represents a small batch Redbreast aged between 8
- 10 years that has been recasked and finished in a collection of sublime Tawny Port Hogsheads.
-
Aroma: Sweet and warming confectionery notes of buttered pastry accompanied by aromas of caramelised almonds with subtle undertones of praline and dried cherry. Scented fl oral honey with whisperings of a delicate herbal character linger in the background while the seasoned oak and pot still spices accentuate the sweet and full
- bodied nature of this wonderfully balanced whiskey.
-
Taste: Rich and nutty at fi rst with notes of chocolate coated hazelnut and salted caramel, quickly followed with fresh plums and dried fi g. The tannins"™ soft presence works in harmony with the luscious and creamy texture, evoking notes of orange marmalade with delicate hints of toasted oak.
-
Finish: Lingering fi nish which sees the pot still spices and fruits slowly fading, leaving the tawny seasoned oak to have the last word.
