At Bunnahabhain, they've been producing exceptional single malts at their remote coastal distillery since 1881, each delightful dram shaped by the relentless seas that ebb and flow past their front door. Like their whisky, Manzanilla sherry is also made beside the ocean and, like bunnahabhain, its distinctive flavour is influenced by the salty spray. What better then, than to combine the two? Every golden drop of this divine single malt has been carefully matured in former Manzanilla casks for a full 11 years.
Resting amid the gentle echo of the Sound of Islay, its resulting character runs deep with salted caramel and swims with sublime currents if oak, nuts and fruit. Tasting notes: Colour: Amber gold Nose: Salted caramel, creamy berries, rich oak, honeyed cashew nuts, dried fruit and spice. Palate: Pleasing overtones of dried fruit and figs, tumbling with subtle notes of sweet malt, candied fruit, rich oak and toffee. Finish: Dried fruit with salted caramel.
