Much loved and lauded Irish whiskey brand Redbreast are causing quite the excitement this World Whisky Day with the eagerly anticipated launch of their third Dream Cask edition.
With just over 900 bottles available, we’re talking about an extremely limited edition single pot still and an undeniably sought-after collectors item that you won’t be able to resist drinking. This 28-year old Irish treasure uses a combination of ex-bourbon, oloroso sherry and ex-port matured whiskey, marrying them together in harmony using the ex-port cask for 105 days. It’s called Dream Cask because, quite frankly, it is.
How can I buy it?
Redbreast know that this whiskey will be in huge demand, so they thought the fairest way to go about selling it was to have a ballot system. Put your name down from the 25th May and the draw happens on the 2nd June. Fingers crossed you get the call! Last year’s Dream Cask Pedro Ximénez Edition (the second ever Dream Cask release) sold out in under fifteen minutes.
What does it taste like?
We were extremely lucky to get hold of a tasting sample of this edition of Dream Cask and can confirm that it is to die for. Decadent and complex, with notes of dark chocolate, sweet ripe plums and cinnamon, it goes on and on… raisins, sultanas and in classic Redbreast style, it shows exotic fruits and berries on the very long finish.
How much is it?
490 EURO a bottle.
