Bunnahabhain 23 year old Triple Sherry Wood Finished (Fèis Ìle 2024), 53.3%
Price: ● Issue: Fall 2024 ● Reviewer: David Fleming ● Category: Single Malt Scotch
A complex nose offers vanilla cream, saltwater taffy, baked plums, and red berries, against ashy charred oak and candle smoke. Rich balanced wine flavors from the sherry finish plus barrel char, soapiness, vanilla, and a hint of orange. A long finish of cherry-vanilla ice cream, dark chocolate, and black pepper mingles with the fruit flavors, leading to a crescendo of whisky deliciousness.
