- Description
- Staoisha's peated Bunnahabhain single malt, distilled in 2014 and matured for seven years in an ex-Laphroaig and PX Sherry hogshead, merges Islay smoke with wine-forward fruit and spice. The 61.3% ABV brings intensity without heat, layering peat character with cherry notes and subtle dried fruit from the dual previous fills. A rare bottling for those who seek depth in peated malts without standard conventions.
