Redbreast Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey – Pedro Ximénez (PX) Edition
Redbreast Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey – Pedro Ximénez (PX) Edition
Introducing the Redbreast PX Edition, a decadent and intricate expression that marks the first release in the Iberian Series—now a permanent member of the beloved Redbreast family. This Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey undergoes an exquisite journey: triple-distilled, matured in Bourbon and Oloroso Sherry casks, then finished for 12 to 22 months in Pedro Ximénez hogsheads from the sun-drenched bodegas of southern Spain.
This finishing touch infuses the whiskey with the luxurious sweetness and warmth of PX sherry, crafting a spirit that's lush, nuanced, and undeniably refined. The result? A whiskey bursting with character—layered, elegant, and endlessly complex. If Redbreast Lustau is a bold flourish, PX Edition is a masterclass in finesse.
Redbreast PX Edition is a shining example of Irish whiskey elegance—boldly fruity, pot still rich, and Iberian sweet. It’s not just a dram; it’s a story poured from cask to glass.

Why Gifted Pour recommends it
For the whiskey lover who already appreciates Irish pot still character, this bottle adds a sweeter, more indulgent chapter. Made at Midleton Distillery from malted and unmalted barley, it is triple-distilled, matured in bourbon and Oloroso sherry casks, then finished for 12 to 22 months in Pedro Ximénez hogsheads. The result opens with red cherry, damson plum and dried vine fruits. A silky, syrupy palate of raspberry, stewed cherry, black tea and clove follows, before a long finish of dark chocolate and sweet spice. It suits a milestone birthday, a retirement, or a host who loves lingering over dessert. It feels considered because it rewards slow attention, whether poured neat at room temperature or opened up with a drop of water to coax out roasted nuts and honeyed dates. As the first release in Redbreast's Iberian Series, it also makes a natural gift for anyone who already knows Redbreast Lustau and wants to explore its more finessed sibling.
