Description
Bunnahabhain's 1965 distillation aged for 35 years in sherry cask represents a remarkable snapshot of the distillery's unpeated character from its earliest era. Despite three and a half decades of maturation, the sherry influence remains restrained, allowing the oily, maritime distillate to dominate the palate. Expect layers of dried fruit and subtle wood influence wrapped in a silky, warming texture. A historical bottling suited to collectors seeking authentic Islay character from the pre-revival era.
