About this product
Two traditions. One extraordinary whiskey.
For those who appreciate the finest expressions of Irish single pot still whiskey, the Redbreast Lustau Edition is a masterclass in depth, flavour, and elegance. This limited edition celebrates the harmonious marriage of Ireland’s pot still tradition with the world-renowned craftsmanship of Spain’s Lustau sherry casks, creating a whiskey of remarkable richness and character.
Unlike traditional Redbreast 12 or 15 Year Olds, the Lustau Edition is finished exclusively in Oloroso sherry casks from Jerez, Spain. This extended maturation imparts layers of dried fruits, roasted nuts, rich caramel, and gentle spice, giving it a luxurious, almost dessert-like complexity while retaining the smoothness and integrity of Redbreast’s signature style. Every sip is a journey through Ireland’s distilling heritage, elevated by the art of Spanish sherry-making.
On the nose, you’ll find aromas of dried figs, raisins, roasted almonds, and subtle vanilla, complemented by hints of orange zest and sherry sweetness. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, with rich plum, toffee, nutmeg, and sherry-laden richness. The finish lingers elegantly, leaving a harmonious trail of warmth, oak, and delicate spice — a whiskey that invites both contemplation and celebration.
The Lustau Edition is a true collector’s item, perfect for those who want to experience the pinnacle of Irish pot still craftsmanship, while exploring the influence of European sherry tradition. It’s a luxurious, limited-edition expression, ideal for gifting or marking life’s special moments with something truly exceptional from Ireland.
Why we love it:
We love the Redbreast Lustau Edition for its sumptuous richness and elegance. The careful marriage of Irish pot still tradition with Lustau sherry casks creates a whiskey of extraordinary complexity — sweet, spicy, and utterly refined. It’s a luxurious expression that tells a story of craftsmanship, patience, and international collaboration, making it a standout in any Irish whiskey collection.
