Dingle Lunasa Single Malt Bourbon Whiskey, 50.5% ABV, 70cl

INTRODUCING LUNASA: A limIted release hOnours the ancient Celtic celebration of Lúnasa, the beGinning of the harvest season. Lúnasa Single Malt pays respects 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. NOSE: Matured in Bourbon casks with a Widow Jane Bourbon cask finish, Lúnasa Single Malt expresses aromas of ripe red berries, warm salted caramel, lemon sherbet and creamy butter fudge. TASTE: On the palate, it brings barley sugar with a pinch of spice and hints of dark chocolate with raspberries. Ginger and spice create a warm glow and slowly leaves dark fruits and caramel notes. WHEEL OF THE YEAR: The Celtic Wheel of the Year is a solar calendar that marks the time and the seasons. It is divided into eight periods. Dingle Distilery’s Wheel of the Year series is set to launch eight editions, following the rhythm of the seasons, equinoxes, and solstices, plus a final release to mark Wren’s Day. DINGLE DISTILLERY: Dingle Distillery was really put on the map when its Dry Gin was named the World’s Best Gin at the 2019 World Gin Awards. But the Kerry-based is probably best known today as one of the leading new distilleries in the Irish whiskey boom. It’s one of the few in the category to only to produce expressions entirely with its own spirit.
