By the turn of the century, the company — a wine and spirits merchant — held one of the largest stocks of maturing whiskey in its inventory, and had expanded to Dublin, Belfast and Edinburgh. In 1912, Gilbeys began selling a 12 year old whiskey named \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.caskers.com\/redbreast-single-pot-still-irish-whiskey\"\u003eRedbreast\u003c\/a\u003e. The name was a reference to the Robin Redbreast (a type of bird) and is attributed to the Chairman of Gilberys, who was an avid ornithologist.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nToday, Redbreast 15 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey continues to pay homage to the legacy of Gilbey and its European origins. The whiskey is crafted from a marriage of malted and unmalted barley, which are milled and mashed before being triple-distilled through traditional copper-pot stills. The inclusions of unmalted barley in the whiskey's mashbill, along with the tradition of triple distillation, are uniquely Irish approaches to producing whiskey.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nFollowing distillation, the whiskey is matured in a combination of casks that were previously used to mature Spanish Oloroso sherry and bourbon. After a 15-year slumber, the whiskey is bottled without the use of chill filtration. \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRedbreast 15 Year Old Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey earned a score of 92 points from \u003cem\u003eWhisky Advocate\u003c\/em\u003e, which called it bold and masculine. In addition, it was called \"Liquid Gold\" by Jim Murray's \u003cem\u003eWhisky Bible\u003c\/em\u003e, and earned the Double Gold Medal at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition in 2013.
