About this deal

Our signature bottling, Redbreast 12 boasts the flavour complexity and distinctive qualities of Pot Still whiskey.

I understand it’s there to build the persona of ‘Uriah’, along with the mystery surrounding his modern-day character, but it does feel out of place. The origin of the East Asian Erithacus robin, Erithacus komadori, inferred from cytochrome b sequence data".When Rakel's superior and an elderly woman named Signe Juul are both murdered by the sniper rifle, Hole finds a link between the killings and Norwegian collaborators during the Nazi occupation. Finally, the robins which can be found in Fuerteventura are the European ones, which is not surprising as the species does not breed either in this island or in the nearby Lanzarote; they are wintering birds or just passing through during their long migration between Africa and Europe.

Look how in the second stanza, for instance, we find autumn sitting on a granary floor, asleep on the f The plots thankfully lack the drum roll and big cash conspiracy, allowing for the individual need to redress perceived. In autumn and winter, robins will supplement their usual diet of terrestrial invertebrates, such as spiders, worms and insects, with berries and fruit.A small bird is an unusual choice, although it is thought to symbolise agility in darting around the field. As a single pot still Irish whiskey, this means that it’s made using a pot still rather than the column stills used to make most other whiskeys. Evidence that some kind of assassination is being planned sends Harry in pursuit of the rifle's purchaser, and when it becomes clear that the murdered tramp once fought with the Nazis, he begins to suspect what we already know: that the plot is shaped by what happened in the war. Habitat segregation by breeding origin in the declining populations of European Robins wintering in southern Iberia".

And after a while I realised that what fascinated me most was not the political decision he had made, but what happened in the trenches and after the war, and all those people fighting with him; what were their reasons for being there? Robins may survive for just 13 months on average, but birds that overcome the hurdle of fledging and growing to maturity have a much greater chance of a long life. The robin is considered to be a gardener's friend, and from the traditional association of the red breast with the blood of Christ, [33] the robin would never be harmed. He sat me down and told me that I could ask him anything and he would try and explain and not give me any excuses.He also realizes that the killer has a split personality, with the second personality being that of Daniel Gudeson. The randomness of life can carry all of one’s “fancied joys away” and change one’s life from one of “flatter[y]” and good joy, to one of death and despair. In 1971, Irish Distillers closed all its Dublin distilleries (including Bow Street) and consolidated production at the New Midleton Distillery, a purpose-built facility in County Cork. In the 15th century, when it became popular to give human names to familiar species, the bird came to be known as robin redbreast, which was eventually shortened to robin. My only regret is that (like Larsson) it seems that Nesbo's women don't get a good run in this Scandavian crime genre.

Overall, Redbreast 12 is a delicious and balanced Irish whiskey that would be perfect for any occasion. The descriptions of sub-zero horrors in wartime Leningrad are superb, but the modern narrative rests on some absurd coincidences, plus the stereotypical character of the embittered loner detective. The regulated nature of this poem helps in the development of a sing-song like rhythm which carries the reader from the first to last stanza.My father was someone I admired and respected, and, as I tried to picture him wearing the iconic Nazi helmet, my world collapsed. I have always been a huge fan of the books of Jo Nesbø and have read most of them in both Norwegian and English, and I must say this is one of the best! Hole realizes he is wrong when he comes across the actual killer's journal, in which he attacks the Norwegian royal family and other government officials who fled to England during the occupation and who later labeled the collaborators as 'traitors' despite their resistance to the onslaught of the Soviet forces. He’s bored by his new job until a report of a rare and unusual gun being fired sparks his interest because of its possible links to Neo Nazi activity.
