- Description
- Bunnahabhain's 2010 Fèis Ìle release matures for 18 years before finishing in Pedro Ximénez casks, creating complexity from Islay's maritime character and Andalusian richness. The PX finish deepens the distillery's characteristic brine and smoke with dense raisin, molasses, and spice notes while maintaining cask strength intensity. This is a complete expression—neither sherry-dominant nor smoke-forward, but both in balance. A collector's find from Islay's festival celebration, showcasing the distillery beyond expectations.
