NASHVILLE, Tenn. <\/b>– Heaven\u2019s Door Whiskey<\/a>\u2122, Bob Dylan\u2019s evolving collection of American whiskeys, and\u00a0Redbreast Irish Whiskey<\/a>\u00ae, the world renowned Single Pot Still Irish Whiskey, proudly announce the release of a limited-edition 10-Year Aged Bourbon finished in Redbreast casks. This first ever collaboration for both brands was created in tandem by Master Blenders, Ryan Perry of Heaven\u2019s Door and Billy Leighton of Redbreast Irish Whiskey, and has been aptly named, \u201cThe Master Blenders\u2019 Edition.\u201d Marrying the best of American and Irish whiskey, The Master Blenders\u2019 Edition has already been awarded a Double Gold medal in a blind tasting in the 2021 San Francisco World Spirits Competition.<\/p>\n

Bob Dylan became deeply connected to Ireland through his friendship with the well-known Irish Clancy Brothers, who he met in Greenwich Village in the 1960s, and some of his early music was inspired by their traditional Irish music style. Building on his long relationship with Ireland, the Heaven\u2019s Door Founder worked closely with the Master Blenders on this innovative yet nostalgic collaboration. More than two years in the making, Perry and Leighton trialed a multitude of blends and barrel finishes to arrive at their final whiskey profile. Bob Dylan sampled over a dozen blends before settling on the final selection. \u201cMr. Dylan is a perfectionist and knows his whiskey,\u201d said Billy Leighton. \u201cHis engagement and enthusiasm for this collaboration made this project even more special.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Master Blenders\u2019 Edition features Heaven\u2019s Door 10-year aged Straight Bourbon finished in Redbreast\u2019s signature Single Pot Still Casks for 15 months, extracting flavor from single pot Irish whiskey and formerly Spanish sherry. The end result is a taste profile unlike any American whiskey and delivers prominent notes of nuts, spice and leather, as well as the influence of sherry, citrus, dark fruit, and a subtle sweetness of Yellow Man from the Redbreast casks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re honored to have had the opportunity to work with Billy and the rest of the Redbreast team to bring The Master Blenders\u2019 Edition to life,\u201d said Ryan Perry. \u201cHeaven\u2019s Door was founded around the spirit of collaboration, and this was a dream partnership for our brand. I can honestly say that the final flavor profile blew us away.\u201d<\/p>\n\n \n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\"bob\n\t<\/picture>\n\n\n
