Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery Bottling 70cl / 52.3%
This 1998 Bunnahabhain Manzanilla Cask Finish is the second of Bunnahabhain's releases for the Feis Ile Islay Festival of Whisky & Music 2023.
This Bunnahabhain 1998 spent almost 18 years in American oak casks before being re-racked in 2016 for five and a bit years of finishing in first fill Manzanilla sherry casks. The resulting whisky, as you can imagine, is bursting with rich, nutty, fruitiness and will be an absolute treat for those that love the unpeated, coastal side of Islay whisky.

Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Colour: Chestnut.
Nose: Notes of freshly baked pastry with sweet almonds, rose petals, grapefruit and dried spices are balanced with a touch of mahogany and incense.
Palate: Coastal influence of seaweed and fresh sea air are met with raisins and dates and intertwined with creamy fudge, waxed red apples and a warm sweet spice reminiscent of star anise.
Finish: Spicy and aromatic with caramelised walnuts; the star anise fades to reveal lemon peel and pears with a lingering note of sea salt.

2 bottles of this lovely single malt were bought as gifts. Sampled a couple of drams from one bottle and it went well above expectations. The quality, integrity, natural colour, cask strength ABV and value-for-money made these bottles 'no-brainers'.
Present us with more of these quality bottles at fair prices...and we'll buy more.
This is a heavily sherried dram that tastes of dates and raisins with a touch of honey and vanilla. It’s pretty soft and smooth without water but a few drops seem to thicken it up slightly and add hints of caramel. Absolutely gorgeous.
