Bunnahabhain Cruach-Mhóna, 50%

Price: 100 Issue: Winter 2016 Reviewer: Gavin Smith Category: Single Malt Scotch

This expression includes young, heavily-peated Bunnahabhain matured in bourbon barrels, mixed with 20 to 21 year old spirit aged in sherry butts. Fragrant, peppery peat on the early nose, brine and fabric Band-Aids. Ultimately, leathery orange. Smooth and supple on the palate, with intense, smoky fresh fruit giving way to quite dry spices. The relatively long finish yields drying peat, plain chocolate, and developing licorice.£80
