Description

This whisky was aged in a combination of sherry and port casks. The team at Bunnahabhain have skilfully married the two, ensuring neither fortified wine dominates whilst both offer fruit and tannic spice. Some dried fruit notes are playing off against their cooked equivalents, with support from cacao and enervating salinity. It is that saltiness creates the real complexity once the finish gets going. A wonderfully moreish Mexican chocolate Mole pushes forward here, too. I strongly recommend a drop or two of water and a few minutes in the glass. That will open up what might appear a very shy whisky at first glance.
