Bunnahabhain Fèis Ìle 2023: 17-Year-Old Mòine Triple Cask

From the Bunnahabhain Website

This cask strength Distillery Exclusive Fèis Ìle whisky is truly something special.  A marriage of three peated drams including an Oloroso Finish, Bourbon Matured and Rum Finish, it has flavours reminiscent of rum and raisin ice cream, our Master Blender, Julieann Fernandez's, favourite!

At Bunnahabhain, we are known for our unpeated, classically sherried single malts. But occasionally we like to surprise our community with something a little more experimental.

In Scots Gaelic, 'moine' means ‘smoky’ and this exquisite festival dram is a marriage of three peated single malts. 

The first was distilled on the 2nd of February 2004 and lay in American Oak casks before being transferred to first-fill Oloroso sherry hogsheads on the 22nd of July 2013 to finish. The second was distilled on the 10th of November 2004 and fully matured in ex-bourbon barrels.  The final whisky was distilled on the 16th of February and filled in American Oak casks before being transferred to finish in the finest rum barrels on the 7th of December 2017. 

Three unique craft types were skilfully blended to produce this delicious limited dram with a character reminiscent of rum and raisin ice cream.  Available exclusively at the distillery and on our website, this is no added colour and non-chillfiltered.

Colour:
Golden 

Nose: 
Perfumed smoke with violet flowers, barbequed pineapple, salted raisins and fresh vanilla pods

Palate: 
Rippling notes of smoke with double cream, raisins, crispy burnt sugar, ripe bananas and a twist of tropical fruit  

Finish:
A rich finish with notes of smoky panna cotta
