Redbreast 27! Is it worth the price?

[@stevenedwards5864]

Picked this up as a gift for my Brother today. Batch 5, 54.6 proof. $475. Seemed too good a price to pass since I wanted to grab one before Christmas and last one I saw was $675.

[@4LeafWhiskey]

I would’ve paid $475 in a heartbeat! Great buy!

I have Batch #4 and love it. I get more of an apricot than grapefruit. Mine was still under $600 when I pulled the trigger.

[@4LeafWhiskey]

Nice! I’m glad batch 4 was less grapefruit. It was really overwhelming on batch 3.

[@Robbie7441]

Very nice Stacey, im not rich enough for that unfortunately 😳 , happy Christmas to you and family 🎄🎄🙏🏻🎅🤶

[@4LeafWhiskey]

Happy Christmas Robbie!

This is an excellent Irish Whiskey. Probably the best thing about it is that its been somewhat resilient to inflation only going up about 10% over the last three years. Cheers and Happy Holidays.

[@4LeafWhiskey]

It’s actually gone up 30% over the last 2 years here in Ohio, from $500 to $650. Three years ago it was $450. I’m hoping future increases are a little slower. Happy Holidays to you! 🎄

[@TheWhiskeyNerd]

Shame about batch 3, but you're right, $650 is likely too much (especially if they go to the cheaper boxes!)

[@4LeafWhiskey]

There are just too many other great bottles available for less.

[@RJR2222]

Enjoy that special pour. Merry Christmas to you and your family

Merry Christmas!🎄🎁

Great review Stacie I’m so close to pulling the trigger on buying a bottle cheers 🥃

[@4LeafWhiskey]

Thank you! It’s definitely a special bottle!

[@pizzawarlord9232]

Looking at a Batch 4 a few states over from me at $600 since if I buy it I will most likely never buy another one and it is only bottle missing in my Redbreast vertical. Love all Redbreast bottles but RB27 is normally at over $1,100 in my state now and that is just stupid. Wish I had grabbed a bottle last month when the RB27 was $480 a few states over. For $1,100 I would choose getting all three expressions of Octomore and a Balvenie 25 year old single malt over just getting a single bottle of RB27.

[@4LeafWhiskey]

$480? Wow!

[@thekycoffeebean]

Now I will have to put this on the top of my Unicorn list LOL

[@4LeafWhiskey]

It’s a really special whiskey! A nice piece of the history of Redbreast and Single Pot Still distilling in Midleton.

[@thekycoffeebean]

@@4LeafWhiskey How does Red Breast compare to Midleton ? I have not had either and was just wondering.

The wife yells at me when I say I want to save up and buy this. I have the 12, 15, 12CS, Tawny Port, PX and Lustau and Kentucky Oak so far. If I had this, I'd be a happy boy. Great review and makes me want to get a bottle all the more. Also, was there a batch or batches, that had a supposed blood orange taste? As an Ohioan, myself, if I could find the blood orange batch, I'd buy it today.

[@4LeafWhiskey]

lol! It’s a special bottle. Just wish the price wasn’t getting so high. Batch 1 had the most blood orange for me. Batch 2 does have some orange as well, but I also get tropical notes and grapefruit.

[@dyerseve07]

@@4LeafWhiskey can you find batch 1 still? I'm sure, if so, it's a pretty penny. I'd love that orange/tropical flavor, but i just love blood oranges.
