Bunnahabhain The Single Malts of Scotland Single Cask #1253 Whisky 18 Year Old · 2001 Vintage

Colour

Deep amber with mahogany depth and coppery highlights.

Nose

Opulent and maritime, the nose offers dark fruit and sherry lifted by sea air. Dried cherry, fig and plum mingle with toasted almond, caramel and cocoa, under warm spice and polished oak. A coastal breeze of salt, vanilla and citrus zest threads through, hinting at 18 years in a single cask.

Palate

Silky and full-bodied on the palate, this 18-year-old Bunnahabhain offers dried figs, raisins and orange zest interlaced with toffee. Sherry richness brings cocoa, almond and spice, while a touch of maritime salt keeps it buoyant. Luxuriously persistent and warmly inviting across the tongue.

Finish

Long, velvety finish with Sherry-dark fruit that slowly unfolds into cocoa, toasted almond and spice. Rich plum and raisin linger, tempered by a citrus hint of orange and a subtle sea-breeze note, drifting into a warm, polished echo that lingers with quiet sophistication.
