This version was finished in an ex-sherry cask from Bodega Lustau, a true Andalucian institution whose history dates back to the end of the 19th century. With its splendid rancio notes, it transports us first to Jerez de la Frontera. It then makes a radical change of scene, whisking us away to Ireland - Cork more precisely, to breathe in its malted and unmalted aromas. Finally, it finds its promised land and tranquillity, settling down at the frontier between these two worlds.

Nose : full-bodied, expressive. With boundless energy, the initial nose transports us to Andalusia to breathe in the aromas of orange blossom, candied apricot and almond. This stunning, fruity rancio then develops into new citrus fruits (lime, grapefruit) and notes of delicious honey (lime tree, lavender). Gradually, the aromatic palette becomes increasingly exotic (mango, passion fruit, Kaffir lime)._x000D_ _x000D_

Palate : clean, precise. Right from the attack on the palate, Redbreast unmistakably rises from the glass. The malted and unmalted barley is joyfully expressed, revealing a no-holds-barred character that is herbaceous, green and tinted with the exoticism of the most famous Irish Single Pot Stills. Deliciously generous and smooth, the end of the palate is creamy (almond milk, coconut), subtly liquorice, and spicy (ginger)._x000D_

Overall : long, silky. Here, the balance between the Andalusian character of the nose and the Irish character of the palate comes to the fore. From this osmosis comes a huge freedom of expression, coupled with a pleasant sensation of freshness. Constantly evolving between these two worlds creates a feeling of intense pleasure. The retro-nasal olfaction is floral (carnation, peony) and the empty glass spicy and liquorice. _x000D_
