Tasting Notes
Colour
Sun-kissed golden amber with honeyed warmth and bronze undertones.
Nose
Elegant with coastal grace, this nose opens with vanilla and toffee from mature American oak, kissed by dried apricot and pear. Toasted almond, a touch of cocoa, and subtle malt emerge as sea spray and a whisper of brine drift in the background, delivering a refined, creamy depth.
Palate
Silky, creamy and medium-full on the palate, this Bunnahabhain reveals vanilla and toffee from the American oak, layering with orchard fruits—pear, apple and a hint of apricot. Nutty almond and hazelnut mingle with warm spice and a touch of citrus zest, all carried by a subtle maritime edge that lingers with quiet confidence.
Finish
Long, satin finish; vanilla and toasted oak unfold slowly, revealing dried fruit and almond sweetness. Subtle maritime notes cloak the palate, with a final kiss of cocoa and gentle spice that lingers, leaving a refined, contemplative warmth.
