UPDATE: Congratulations to @davethornton82 who had their wish granted!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ho ho ho!<\/span><\/p>\n

The elves are on lunch break, the tree\u2019s down from the attic, and I\u2019m up to my beard in tinsel. I need a good distraction. How about another #WhiskySanta<\/a> Super Wish?<\/span><\/p>\n

Bunnahabhain 40 Year Old<\/b><\/a>. How about that then? A whisky valued at \u00a32,250! (That\u2019s what a mince pie will cost in the UK in about 20 years #satiricalsanta.)<\/span><\/p>\n

Before we meet our superstar, a cheer for Benjamin Kenneth Drew on Facebook<\/span>, who scored last week\u2019s <\/span>Laphroaig 34 Year Old – The Ian Hunter Story Book 5: Enduring Spirit<\/a> worth \u00a31,200!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Bunnahabhain<\/p>\n

Meet the Super Wish: Bunnahabhain 40 Year Old<\/b><\/h3>\n

Now, back to this week\u2019s Super Wish<\/a>: the extraordinary <\/span>Bunnahabhain 40 Year Old<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s aged whisky<\/a>, and then there\u2019s this. Bunnahabhain represents the softer side of Islay<\/a> with its unpeated spirit, aged in sherry casks by the sea.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this case, we\u2019ve got four decades of maturation magic doing its thing, and the result is sublime. All dark chocolate, roasted nuts, old oak furniture, and waves of sweet dried (and some tropical) fruit, wrapped in a gentle coastal breeze.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s honestly the kind of whisky that makes you believe in Christmas miracles.<\/span><\/p>\n

How to wish for #WhiskySanta\u2019s Bunnahabhain 40 Year Old Super Wish<\/b><\/h3>\n

Super Wishes essentially work just like the usual Ask #WhiskySanta wishing fun on social media. Except that this particular \u2013 exceptional \u2013 bottle will 100% go to one lucky soul who wishes for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
