Redbreast 12
year old single pot still Irish whiskey
continues to impress by scooping the
World Whisky Trophy at the prestigious
IWSC 2019.
 Not that it really needs another
medal to indicate its quality but the
Redbreast 12 Year Old single pot still
Irish whiskey has taken home the World
Whisky Trophy at the prestigious
International Wine and Spirit
Competition 2019 which is one of the
world’s most influential spirits
competitions, now in it’s 50th year.
The competition awarded Redbreast 12
Year Old with its highest honour across
Irish, American and Japanese whiskeys
after scoring an impressive 98 points,
continuing its legacy as the most
decorated single pot still Irish whiskey
in the world. The respected competition
also honoured Midleton Very Rare Barry
Crockett Legacy and Jameson Cooper’s
Croze with 98 points, which was
underpinned by Irish Distillers winning
the majority of Gold Outstanding honours
within the Irish whiskey category. r>
Success at the IWSC parallels stand-out
performances for the Midleton portfolio
at the Beverage Testing Institute, with
Jameson Bow Street 18 Years Cask
Strength and Redbreast 21 Year Old
receiving platinum medals, the BTI’s
most prestigious award, for scoring 96
points respectively. In addition, Irish
Distillers scooped 27 Medals out of the
67 medals on offer at The Irish Whiskey
Masters, with sixteen Gold Medals and
seven Masters awarded across the range.
The Redbreast portfolio was presented
with coveted Master and Gold medals,
with Redbreast 21 Year Old commended by
the judges for ‘showing something
different to the rest of the pack.’
Commenting on the accolades, Billy
Leighton, Redbreast Master Blender at
Midleton Distillery said: “We are
thrilled to see more fantastic results
at such prestigious global spirits
tasting competitions. It is great to see
the Redbreast range flourish as it
continues to excite consumers with its
exemplary single pot still Irish whiskey
style. These awards are truly a
testament to the craftsmen at Midleton
Distillery who assist me in blending the
finest Irish whiskeys in the world, and
we look forward to seeing what the
future holds!”
