- Description
- Staoisha, Bunnahabhain's peated expression, appears here as a 2013 single cask aged in a first-fill bourbon barrel and bottled at 57.1% by Single Cask Nation. Iodine, seaweed, and savoury green notes characterise the smoke, balanced by the vanilla and caramel sweetness of new American oak. The high strength amplifies both smoke intensity and wood influence, creating a bold and direct expression. Best suited to those seeking uncompromising peat character from Islay with the added dimension of bourbon cask maturation.
