REDBREAST® IRISH WHISKEY UNVEILS MOSCATEL WINE CASK EDITION

Limited-edition release of Redbreast's acclaimed Iberian Series finished in Moscatel wine casks from historic winery in the hills of southern Spain

NEW YORK, Feb. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Redbreast®, the World's Most Awarded Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey*, announces the launch of Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition, the fifth iteration in the award-winning Redbreast Iberian Series. While all Redbreast whiskies are matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, what makes the Iberian Series even more special is the unique sherry casks specifically selected for these expressions. Crafted by Master Blender David McCabe, this limited-edition honors both Redbreast's heritage and innovation by using Moscatel Wine casks from the historic Bodegas Quitapenas to enrich the flavor profile of the famed Irish single pot still whiskey.

Inspired by Redbreast's historic ties with fortified wines, Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition is first matured in a selection of ex-American whiskey casks and Spanish Oloroso sherry casks, followed by a final maturation period of 16 months in Málaga Moscatel casks. Bottled at 46% ABV, Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition is rich in Mediterranean expression, bringing a noticeably elegant and more citrus forward personality to the whiskey.

Across several decades, McCabe and former Master Blender Billy Leighton have developed deep relationships with cask producers and winemakers throughout the Iberian Peninsula, inviting whiskey enthusiasts on a journey of discovery across this region. For this sun-soaked release, the team at Midleton Distillery partnered with Bodegas Quitapenas in Málaga, now led by fifth‑generation custodians Marta Suárez Prieto and Víctor Suárez OnrubiaI. Under their careful watch, these curated hogsheads made from European Oak were seasoned with Moscatel wine for two years before being shipped to Midleton Distillery, where they were filled with a bespoke batch of Redbreast Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey.

With a complex flavor journey, the whiskey opens with notes of fresh, sweet tangerine and twisted orange peel, accompanied by delicate herbal notes of chamomile tea with dustings of nutmeg and cedarwood. The wine-seasoned oak imparts vanilla, with notes of floral honey and sugar glazed fruits, while the pot still spices add subtle notes of black peppercorn and clove in the background.

"The launch of Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition is a celebration of Redbreast's heritage, craftsmanship, and incredible legacy dating back to the late 1800s," said Master Blender, David McCabe. "The use of Spanish Moscatel-seasoned casks is a tribute to Redbreast's historic ties to sherry and fortified wines, and our appreciation for the incredible people across the region, including Marta and her family at Bodegas Quitapenas, which was founded in 1880. Their remarkable family heritage inspired the richness and depth of this expression."

"It has been a great honor to work with David and his team at Midleton on the launch of Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition, which pays such a wonderful tribute to our rich family history," said Marta Suárez Prieto of Bodegas Quitapenas. "Along with my cousin Víctor, we have taken great care to season the casks perfectly, to ensure the new expression is infused with wonderful flavor notes of sweet honey, dates and caramelized fruits alongside gentle herbal, floral and citrus tones."

Crafted to be enjoyed neat or over ice, Redbreast Moscatel Wine Cask Edition is available at RedbreastWhiskey.com (SRP: $109.99). To learn more, follow @RedbreastUS #RedbreastWhiskey #QuiteTheFind #RedbreastMoscatel.
