An incredibly rare sight these days, this late 90's Bunnahabhain was chosen from a single refill ex-Oloroso sherry Gorda cask. Adelphi's tasting notes describe a very dense and rich whisky, laden with notes of sultanas, dried figs, quince, dark chocolate and intense fruit loaf. To taste, star anise and tobacco leaf, with caramel and salt cutting through. Waves of chocolate and caramel join intense umami savoury notes of oyster sauce and Chinese black vinegar.

Bunnahabhain distillery is especially famous for its unpeated, ex-sherry matured style malts with salty, herbal and fruity undertones. This new expression from Gordon & MacPhail is an example of the rarer peated make. Matured in standard barrels, this showcases the smokier character, but still with plenty of herbal and salty undertones to keep in line with the distinctive Bunnahabhain characteristics - sweet, salty and smoldering smoke.

Filled from a single ex-sherry butt, again showing a relatively mild wood influence, this Bunnahabhain is very typical of its style, waxy, fruity and nutty. With flavours of of roasted nut & fruit mix, there is also the classic note of beeswax and honeycomb coming through. There is a creamyness to the palate, with fruit leather and a drying, salty minerality - a classic unpeated Bunnahabhain from the northern reaches of Islay.

Sti?ireadair; pronounced ?stew-rahdur? meaning helmsman. This distillery release from Bunnahabain contains fruity and nutty aromas due to the large proportion of
first and second sill sherry casks. Creamy vanillas on the palate with a sea salty twang finish on the lips. This a great non-aged statement from Islay with just a bit of peat smoke. 

Situated on the beautiful north east coast of Islay, looking out over the paps of Jura, Bunnahabhain is described as the 'gentle Islay', a more approachable style compared to the classic peat smoke characteristic the island is so well known for. The nose is aromatic with a subtle glimmer of smoke and a faint hint of seashore that continues into the palate. Light fruit mingles with a savoury nutty character and rich malty caramel sweetness. A lingering gingery spice on the finish. A unique Islay malt which is a must-try for anyone exploring the diversity of west coast drams.

The nose on the Bunnahabhain 18 is truly incredible - huge notes of rich honey, nuts, old leather, dried fruits and a hint of sea-side smoke. A distinct umami (the Japanese word for 'savoury', think soy sauce and dried meat) character and a truly to-die-for rich dark chocolate flavour push this whisky in to a league far beyond what its age and price would suggest. Highly recommended.

Maturing for 25 years in sherry casks, this latest edition from Bunnahabhain shows the classic non-smkoy style for this famous Islay distillery. The wonderfully rich flavours of sherry casks produce flavours of fruitcake, dried fruit and a distinctive roasted nut taste. Honeyed, creamy and spicy as well, this ia beaituflly complex single malt from the Westering Home on Islay.
