Bunnahabhain – Stiuireadair Islay Single Malt Whisky

Description

Meaning ‘Helmsman’ in Gaelic, the Stiuireadair is selected from first and second fill sherry casks from multiple vintages and warehouse locations. This gives the Whisky a slightly more coastal character. Classic Bunna on the nose with cream and a caramel sweetness. There’s more spice with this bottling and a slight earthy saltiness right on the end. The texture is smooth with dried fruit and more creaminess, a more pronounced salted caramel nature to the flavour develops, along with sea salt and sweet chilli – the sherried nuttiness remains. The finish is enjoyable with a light lingering creaminess.
