Intro:
Part of the Irish whiskey brand's new endeavor, Redbreast PX takes their standard pot still Irish malt and finishes it in sweet wine casks known as Pedro Ximenez casks.
-
Nose:
Sweet cream, light cocoa, roasted nuts, big buttery texture on the nose. Brown butter, honey, light fig and raisin bread. Lots going on.
-
Taste:
Thin to medium mouthfeel, sweet cream and honey, lovely rich sherry character. Touch of strawberry, blackberry, light tobacco and some pepper.
-
Finish:
Long finish, sweet and creamy with just enough sherry to add a big facet of complexity.
-
Overall:
This bottling is a win for the brand, with Redbreast PX coming out well ahead of many recent releases in the same price class.
