Redbreast 21yo

A Redbreast 21yo label popped up on Twitter last night, as approved by the US alcohol regulators:

That's a huge jump in age. Unbelievable, can't wait to get some. I hope it'll be available on the Irish market.

Great find David. :thumbsup:

Looks genuine but not confirmed as of yet from any other source. Possible autumn release.

I've got a confirmation earlier today from a very reliable source.

There will be so great things coming on line over the next few years.

I'd imagine it may be released to coincide with whiskey week and Whisky Live.

I don't hold up much hope for realistic pricing as IDL seem to have an over inflated view of what their whiskey worth. Given that they think Jameson 18yo should retail at €125 ... We'll have to wait and see.

Let's be unscientific...

Tomatin 30 Year-Old (46% abv): €169.99
Teeling Silver Reserve 21-Year-Old (46% abv): €149.99
Glengoyne 21-Year-Old (43% abv): €129.99
Glenfiddich 21-Year-Old (40% abv): €119.99
Auchentoshan 21-Year-Old (43% abv): €115.00
Glendronach 21-Year-Old Parliament (48% abv): €89.99

€149.99 for Redbreast 21 would be about the limit in my opinion, in excess of that would be crazy.
