Given that my current bottle of Redbreast is down to two or three pours, the timing couldn't be better for replacing it (as I always do) with the cask strength version. Anyone have any idea what the price range might be?

Anyone have any idea what the price range might be?

According to Just Drinks:

"Price - Between EUR65 (US$87.50) and EUR69 (dependent on country

and local excise) per 70cl bottle"

Does anyone know when this will be released?

This will be awesome except for the fact that it won't arrive in the US until February!

This is great news the RB12 is a very unique whiskey and always has a spot on my shelf.

Any word as to what proof this will be bottled at?

Well I hope at what ever strength proof comes out from each cask dumped together hence the tag "cask strength"... but I get your question if your thinking of something like Rare Breed which says it is barrel proof but how do they get all the dumps to come out to 108.2 proof (at least for the 03RB version). I don't know what proof Redbreast or other Irish goes into the barrel which may give a clue as to what proof it will come out but maybe some of the Irish whiskey experts here know more about that and what expected proof range it should be.

Saw this mentioned on Hansell's FB post. I'm mighty stoked about this myself, as the kids say.

Thanks for the heads up John. Can't wait.

Now everybody go get yourself a bottle. It is worthy of the hype. I get more citrus and grapefruit than plum and red berry that Dominic Roskrow found but but maybe that will change upon second tasting tonight :grin: .

It is in Pa. I think Binnys does too. I am going to check locally today!

Yes it is here in Chicago. Of course Jameson radio ads have already been running non stop here in anticipation of St. Patricks day so first distribution here may be on purpose.

[chefnash51]

Can't wait to get a bottle of this! I am going to make some calls tomorrow to see if I can locate a bottle. Yum

It's in Wisconsin, now. I picked some up this past weekend.

[TheDude]

I'm fairly new to Irish whiskey, and wasn't a real big fan (when compared to my bourbon) until I recently tried the RB12. It was really wonderful stuff. Very different and exceptionally smooth and flavorful.

I have not seen the cask strength on the shelf in KY yet, but may do a serious search this weekend.

[bulldawg]

Found some in Atlanta today. Good stuff.
