In stock
This 21-year-old Bunnahabhain from Decadent Drinks’ Old Islay Island Hopping series showcases the distillery’s coastal character shaped by full sherry maturation. Distilled in 2004 and matured in first-fill sherry hogsheads, it balances earthy, drier sherry richness with Bunnahabhain’s signature maritime salinity and robustness.
Bottled at natural strength, the whisky delivers layers of dark fruit, nutty sweetness, savoury oak and gentle coastal depth. A confident and characterful Islay single malt, produced in a limited outturn of just 296 bottles.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep coppery amber with mahogany depths and a faint ruby glow.
Nose
Dark fruit and dried fig mingle with roasted almond and cocoa from first-fill sherry, supported by savoury oak. A coastal breeze threads through—the briny sea spray and subtle iodine—adding maritime depth to the aroma and a refined Islay restraint.
Palate
Full-bodied Islay palate, coastal and maritime, with sherry richness shaping the fruit. Dark plum and fig dance with toasted nut and cocoa, tempered by savoury oak. Silky mouthfeel at natural strength, yielding a long, drying finish laced with salt and a whisper of spice.
Finish
Long, maritime finish with dark fruit and nutty sweetness evolving into savoury oak. Coastal salt lingers beside a drying sherry grip, fading to a warm, sea-breeze echo that carries a final whisper of almond and richness.
