Bunnahabhain Feis Ile 2009 - Moine Single Cask Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 6 Year Old · 2003 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with a honey-gold glow and coppery highlights, a warm mahogany edge.

Nose

Peat smoke drifts over briny coastal air, tempered by sherry-cask sweetness. Dried fig, raisin and toffee mingle with cocoa and vanilla, while a subtle iodine-touched sea breeze threads through, lending maritime elegance and depth.

Palate

Oil-rich and assertive, this coats the mouth with coastal sweetness and sherry-dark fruit. Dried fig, date and cocoa mingle with vanilla and toasted almonds, while a whisper of peat smoke and sea-salt threads through the middle. The 58.4% heat drives a long, warming finish where oak, toffee and dark fruit linger.

Finish

Silky, lingering finish with warm sherry and coastal nuance. Dried fig, orange zest and almond unfold into cocoa and spice, while a hint of sea breeze threads through. The sweetness fades slowly, leaving a soft, nutty echo and a touch of oak.
