Product Information
This festival release of a Limited Edition whisky was initially distilled on October 28th, 1998 and then matured in American Oak casks before being transferred to first-fill Manzanilla sherry casks on May 25th, 2016 for the finishing stage. Manzanilla sherry is renowned for its coastal, nutty, and salty notes, which are similar to the characteristics of our Bunnahabhain spirit. Despite being less common than some other sherries, our Master Blender and Master Distiller appreciate using it in our whisky.
To intensify and concentrate the flavor, this festival edition whisky is bottled at cask strength, without added color, and non-chillfiltered, in line with all our whiskies.

Nose – Deep peaty-gold. Complex, oaky, apples and pears, and a tempting dark toffee sweetness.
Palate – Dry and assertive, develops quickly to reveal a rich spiciness, combined with a hint of oak and sherried fruit.
Finish – Amazingly smooth for the strength; wonderfully warming with a lingering smokiness, yet very rounded

Nose – Very sweet on the nose. Initially it is all creme caramel, caramelised fruit sugars, wood sugar, toffee and fudge before some apple and peach come through. In time a charred note of bourbon with a pleasing dusty dryness.
Palate – A sweet start on the palate. The alcohol gives a little tongue-tingling buzz the result is a good mid-palate weight. The dry distillery character is there still, but there is now depth to counter. Water slightly dismantles the different elements, but adds some dried mint.
Finish – A deep and dark finish.
