In stock
A distillery-exclusive release for Feis Ile 2017 from Bunnahabhain, this 20 year old was distilled in 1997 and bottled in 2017 at 52.2% ABV. Matured in American oak and limited to 528 bottles, it was produced as a festival-only edition.
Drawn from Bunnahabhain’s typically unpeated, coastal style, the American oak maturation is expected to emphasise clarity and balance rather than heavy sweetness or smoke. You can anticipate a clean maritime character with gentle salinity, soft malt sweetness and restrained oak influence.

Nose
Clean maritime nose with sea-salt brine and a whisper of coastal breeze, carried by soft malt sweetness. Subtle vanilla and restrained American oak offer gentle warmth, while delicate barley notes keep the aroma bright and balanced.
