The Bunnahabhain Eirigh Na Greine Islay Whisky is a distinguished single malt Scotch from the Bunnahabhain Distillery, located on the picturesque island of Islay in the Hebrides. Unlike many of its island counterparts, Bunnahabhain is renowned for its unpeated whiskies, and the Eirigh Na Greine is a testament to this tradition. This whisky offers a smooth and soft alternative to the typically smoky Islay whiskies, making it a unique gem among Scotch aficionados. Eirigh Na Greine, which translates to "Morning Sky" in Gaelic, is named after its distinctive reddish hue, reminiscent of the morning sky. This beautiful color is achieved through partial maturation in premium red wine casks, which infuse the whisky with juicy berry notes, complemented by hints of sea salt and orchard fruit. Bottled at a robust 46.3% ABV and non-chill filtered, this limited edition release is designed to preserve its rich and complex character. Characterized by sweet, rich spices, the Eirigh Na Greine evolves into flavors of roasted nuts, fresh fruits, and subtle maritime notes. The palate reveals an interplay of sea salt, apricots, black pepper, and warm spices, along with a berry fruitiness attributed to the red wine casks. The finish lingers long with gentle smoke and a hint of spice, making each sip a journey through a spectrum of flavors. Initially released for the Travel Retail market, this special edition is a blend of various ages of Bunnahabhain single malt, with only a small batch bottled each year. This limited availability makes Eirigh Na Greine a sought-after release, perfect for whisky lovers who enjoy a smooth, complex dram with a unique twist.
