Redbreast Kentucky Oak Edition is a landmark collaboration between Ireland's most celebrated Single Pot Still whiskey and the American South — triple distilled in copper pot stills, matured in American Bourbon barrels and Spanish Oloroso Sherry butts, then finished for a minimum of 4 months in hand-selected, air-dried American Oak from the Taylor family farm in Kentucky. A genuine meeting of two great whiskey traditions. Bottled at 46% ABV.
