Inspired by the tradition of tasting straight from the cask in the distillery’s coastal warehouses, this annual limited-edition release presents Bunnahabhain in its purest form. Matured for 12 years on the north-eastern shores of Islay, the whisky is unpeated and shaped by the maritime climate, clear spring water, and a careful selection of Oloroso sherry casks.
For 2025, Master Blender Julieann Fernandez has chosen a combination of predominantly second-fill Oloroso casks, balanced by first-fill and refill, creating a nuanced, distillate-led profile. This edition places emphasis on balance and layered complexity, with subtle sherry influence complementing rather than dominating the robust Islay spirit.
Tasting Notes by Bunnahabhain:Nose: Golden raisins and apricots with toasted nuts and a light floral note.Palate: Malty sweetness, soft oak and dried fruit with sultanas, hazelnuts and gentle spice.Finish: Oak spice and light tobacco, with a touch of sea salt and cocoa powder.
