Summary

Bunnahabhain Cruach-Mhòna is a single malt whisky from Scotland, known for its distinctive peated character. Unlike many other Islay whiskies, Bunnahabhain typically produces unpeated expressions, making this particular bottle a unique offering from the distillery. The name 'Cruach-Mhòna' translates to 'peat stack' in Gaelic, hinting at the smoky profile that awaits the drinker.

This whisky is crafted with a focus on the maritime influences of its coastal origin, imparting a subtle briny note that complements the peat smoke. The spirit is non-chill filtered and bottled at a higher strength, preserving the full range of flavors and aromas. Its golden amber hue is inviting, and the complexity of its profile makes it a rewarding experience for both novice and seasoned whisky enthusiasts.

On the palate, the whisky reveals layers of flavor, starting with a gentle sweetness that transitions into a robust smokiness. The finish is long and warming, leaving a lingering impression of peat and sea salt. This expression is a testament to Bunnahabhain's ability to innovate while staying true to its roots.
