Abhainn Dearg Single Malt Special Edition is a unique expression from the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. This whisky is crafted with a focus on traditional methods, using locally sourced barley and water from the Abhainn Dearg distillery's own spring. The result is a spirit that captures the essence of its rugged, coastal environment, offering a taste of the Hebrides in every sip.
The whisky is non-chill filtered and bottled at natural cask strength, ensuring that all the natural flavors and oils are preserved. This approach gives the whisky a rich and full-bodied character, with a complexity that will appeal to both novice and experienced whisky drinkers. The maturation process in oak casks adds depth and a subtle sweetness, balancing the robust maritime notes.
On the nose, you can expect a fresh, coastal aroma with hints of sea breeze and a touch of maltiness. The palate is well-rounded, with flavors of oak, vanilla, and a gentle smokiness that lingers pleasantly. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a warm, slightly spicy aftertaste that invites you to take another sip.
