Bunnahabhain 20 Year Old 1997 - Palo Cortado Cask Finish
A rather impressive limited edition release from Islay's Bunnahabhain distillery, featuring 20 year old whisky which has enjoyed a finishing period in casks that once held Palo Cortado sherry. The whisky was distilled in November 1997 and bottled in April 2018 after nearly two years in the Palo Cortado casks, them bottled at cask strength. 1,620 bottles were produced.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Burnt brown sugar, olive oil, peanut butter, hints of dark chocolate poking through the savoury notes.
Palate
Juicy red berry sweetness develops of the palate, with salted peanut notes remaining. A touch of orange sharpness.
Finish
Mature oak, maybe even a bit of rancio. Golden syrup.
