Master Blender David McCabe says, “The launch of Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition is a celebration of Redbreast’s heritage, craftsmanship, and incredible legacy dating back to the late 1800s.”
He continues, “The use of Spanish Moscatel–seasoned casks is a tribute to Redbreast’s historic ties to sherry and fortified wines, and our appreciation for the incredible people across the region, including Marta and her family at Bodegas Quitapenas, which was founded in 1880. Their remarkable family heritage inspired the richness and depth of this expression.”
Tasting Note
This whiskey opens with notes of fresh, sweet tangerine and twisted orange peel, accompanied by delicate herbal notes of chamomile tea with dustings of nutmeg and cedarwood. The wine-seasoned oak imparts vanilla, with notes of floral honey and sugar glazed fruits, while the pot still spices add subtle notes of black peppercorn and clove in the background.
