Tasting Notes:

Nose: Deep and evocative with layers of dark fruits, caramel and toffee. Aromas of cracked leather, dusty old books and orange oil rise from the glass, supported by warm spice and gentle coastal undertones.

Palate: Luxuriously rich and complex. Flavours of demerara-coated nuts, banana bread and ripe plums unfold alongside toffee sweetness, soft spice and a subtle touch of maritime salinity. The texture is full, velvety and beautifully balanced.

Finish: Long, smooth and warming. Notes of salted caramel, saffron, nutmeg and a faint whisper of wood smoke linger elegantly, showcasing the depth and maturity of this exceptional 28-year-old Bunnahabhain.

Nestled beside the Sound of Islay, Bunnahabhain continues to craft whiskies admired for their depth, coastal freshness and timeless charm.
