It highlights Bunnahabhain’s unpeated, coastal style with rich sherry influence.

Tasting Notes:
Nose: Rich Oloroso sherry, dried figs, dark chocolate, orange peel, and sea salt.

Finish: Long, warm, with sherry-soaked fruit, oak, and a hint of coastal minerality.
A collector’s treasure, this bottling blends Islay’s coastal elegance with deep Oloroso sherry character.
