Hey now, hey now
Don't dream it's over

Redbreast's Dream Cask Collection has been literally the stuff of dreams for Irish whiskey lovers - but now the Irish whiskey brand is doing its final show with a final bottling that comes in at 38 years old, making it the oldest release from the range.

The 7th edition of the Redbreast Dream Cask is titled Zenith Edition and will is released today - 18th May - where fans will get a chance to buy the whiskey for €1,000 (or US$1,087) through Redbreast's online ballot which opens 12 PM GMT Monday 20th May 2024. So you're definitely going to want to mark you calendars!

The Redbreast Dream Cask Zenith Edition stands at a whopping 38 Years Old, bottled at 45.3% ABV, and was crafted using a re-casking method that is said to honour the brand's past and future. It is the fruit of Redbreast's Master Blender Dave McCabe and Master Blender Emeritus Billy Leighton.

Distilled in 1985, this Irish whiskey was aged for 27 years in American oak ex-Bourbon casks, before a secondary maturation in first-fill Oloroso Sherry cask for the next 11 years.

The expression is said to offer "spice and vanilla tones to the expression, alongside ripe and juicy blackcurrant flavours from the Sherry cask, and undertones of chocolate and nuts".

Kanpai!
