Bunnahabhain Limited Edition Sherry Cask Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky 35 Year Old · 1965 Vintage

Colour

Deep burnished amber with mahogany hues and a coppery glow.

Nose

Opulent nose of dark dried fruits—figs, raisins and sultanas—woven with walnut and almond, a ribbon of cocoa, orange zest and toffee. The sherry cask lends warming spice, caramelized oak, and a kiss of leather and tobacco, with a subtle maritime brightness.

Palate

Sherry-drenched and velvety, this 35-year-old unfurls plush raisin and fig notes, with orange zest and dark chocolate. Rich toffee and almond meet a subtle spice, framed by oak. At 53.9%, it remains refined and lush, finishing long with warmth, a hint of maritime salt, and a lingering nutty sweetness.

Finish

Long, sumptuous finish where Sherry richness coats the palate. Dried fig, orange peel and walnut mingle with cocoa and toasted almond, while cinnamon and clove add a warming spice. A touch of sea air threads through, and the oak lingers in a refined, velvety echo that gradually fades to sweetness and quiet elegance.
