Moon Harbour
Tasting Notes
A captivating fusion of French terroir and Scottish craftsmanship, this single malt whisky from Moon Harbour Distillery beckons with an alluring aroma. Floral notes from the wine barrels mingle seamlessly with the warm embrace of cinnamon, ginger, and candied orange peel, creating an olfactory delight. On the palate, fresh stone fruits dance alongside vanilla, toasted almonds, and brown sugar, complemented by a peppery spice that tantalizes the senses. The finish is a lingering embrace of warm oak, leaving a delightful fruitiness that lingers pleasantly. Crafted from locally grown barley and distilled in traditional pot stills, this whisky's journey culminates in a careful maturation process, first in Sauternes barrels and then in casks from the celebrated Château Rieussec. Bottled without chill filtration or added color, it stands as a true expression of Bordeaux's winemaking heritage and the art of French whisky-making.
