The newest member of the Bunnahabhain core range family, this first batch release of a 30 year whisky is one of our oldest single malts. Matured exclusively in ex-sherry casks in our coastal warehouses at the distillery, non-chill filtered and natural colour, this is a rich and sweet dram.
Description
It takes patience and perseverance to perfect this whisky; three decades of watching and waiting, a unique character shaped by the salt-rich air at Bunnahabhain Bay.
Every dram of our 30 year old is matured in ex-sherry casks under the watchful eye of our Distillery Manager. Only when it is fully formed is it freed from its coastal cocoon; its once-hidden bounty ready to be revealed and revered. Expect notes of strawberries and cream, gradually developing into honey nut cereals and an abundance of rich toffee, before finishing with a hint of salted caramel and light spices. The first batch produced for this new release, this is definitely not one to miss!
