Description
Lúnasa is the fourth release in a range of nine limited-edition whiskeys that make up the Wheel of the Year series, which champions Irish folk stories and heroes. In this case, Lúnasa pays homage to the mother of Lugh, a god of Irish mythology, who is said to have died of exhaustion after preparing Ireland’s fields for farming. The whiskey itself is an Irish single malt that was aged in bourbon casks before it was finished in Widow Jane bourbon casks and bottled at 50.5% ABV.
Tasting Notes
- Nose: Red berries, warm salted caramel, lemon sherbet, and creamy butter fudge
- Palate: The sweetness of barley sugar accompanied by a subtle hint of spice and tantalizing notes of dark chocolate with raspberries.
- Finish: Lingering warmth from ginger and spice, leaving behind a delightful blend of dark fruits and caramel notes.
