- Description
- Bunnahabhain's 2012 distillate finished in an Oloroso sherry hogshead for its final years before Woodrow's of Edinburgh bottled 264 expressions in 2023. The Islay foundation of smoke and salt gains complexity from sherry influence, adding dried fruit and warm spice to the maritime character. The marriage balances peat against oloroso sweetness, creating an approachable yet sophisticated profile. Well-suited to those exploring how sherry finishes enhance island whiskies.
