FEBRUARY 2021

This month, we rocket back to the ‘old world’ of whisky with nothing less than a legendary Irish sherry bomb! February’s Malt of the Month is a collaboration between one of the world’s most highly recognised Sherry producers, and one of Irelands most popular whiskey brands. We are proud to get our hands on the ‘Redbreast Lustau Sherry Finish’ for our members this month.

The Rebreast Lustau Sherry Finish is a unique collaboration between the Bodega Lustau and Midleton Distillery. Distilled in the Irish ‘Single Pot Still’ style. The Redbreast Lustau Sherry Finish is made from a mixture of both malted and unmalted barley. Triple distilled in the one pot still at the Midleton Distillery, aged for 9-12 years in Bourbon and Sherry casks, then finished for 12 months in first fill Oloroso Sherry casks from the Bodega Lustau. The result is the ultimate sherried style of Redbreast and that Bodega Lustau agreed to their name being used for the expression tells a lot about the quality of the casks they have used in this.
