Fèis Ìle 2018: Spanish Oak Finish Whisky

 

From the Bunnahabhain Website

Created for Fèis Ìle 2018, this is a limited release of 1500 oak finish whisky bottles. Non-chill-filtered, natural colour and with intense notes of ripe berries, dark chocolate, oak and subtle spices, sit back and raise a toast to Islay.

Description

Starting life in 2002 in whisky refill casks, this whisky was left to mature for 11 long years, before being transferred to Spanish Gran Reserva barrels in 2013 to mature once more in our coastal warehouses. In 2018 our blending team decided the time was right to bottle - just in time for Fèis Ìle 2018.

This whisky coats the mouth with rich Spanish brandy notes and gentle spices to create a truly unique dram.
