Bunnahabhain 1998 Manzanilla Cask Finish – Feis Ile 2023
Introducing the Bunnahabhain 1998 Manzanilla Cask Matured Whisky, a limited edition masterpiece crafted to celebrate Fèis Ìle 2023. Experience the warmth of a truly exceptional dram, where salt meets spice in perfect harmony.
Distilled on a memorable day, the 28th of October in 1998, this whisky was aged in American Oak casks before finding its unique character in first-fill Manzanilla sherry casks on the 25th of May in 2016. Manzanilla sherry, known for its coastal, salty, and nutty profile, beautifully complements the soul of our Bunnahabhain spirit. Our Master Blender and Master Distiller handpicked this rarity to create a whisky as exquisite as it is uncommon.
Bottled at cask strength to intensify the flavors, this festival release showcases our commitment to authenticity. Just like all our whiskies, it boasts the natural hues of its journey without added colors and remains non-chillfiltered, ensuring that every drop holds the genuine essence of our craft. Savor the allure of tradition, the allure of Fèis Ìle, and the allure of Bunnahabhain 1998 Manzanilla Cask Matured Whisky. A limited edition, but an unlimited experience.
