BUNNAHABHAIN STAOISHA 11 ans 2012 1st fill Oloroso Sherry Butts Signatory Vintage

Built in 1881 at the height of the Scotch whisky boom, Bunnahabhain is located in the north-east of Islay. Its distillery houses two magnificent pear-shaped stills from which it produces a heavy spirit that is generally not very peaty. Owned by the Burn Stewart Distillers group since May 2003, Bunnahabhain has for some years been offering young versions bottled by merchants that are very smoky and peaty.

The Staoisha version of Bunnahabhain was distilled in 2012 and then aged for 11 years in first-fill oloroso sherry casks. From the island of Islay, it is a long, powerful profile with aromas of peat, fig and liquorice.
The small batch range includes bottlings in small batches, numbered, unfiltered and untainted. At 48.20% proof and until now marked by the sherry cask, they are the perfect representatives of the distilleries featured on the labels in a rich and singular style.
