Staoisha 5yo 2013

Here we have a five year old Staoisha, which is what a peated Bunnahabhain is called! It was distilled on Islay in 2013 and left in a sherry butt for its entire maturation. Càrn Mòr bottled the smoky whisky in 2019, with an outturn of 681 bottles at 47.5% ABV.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose Brown sugar, smoked dried fruit and bonfire ash.

Palate Maritime saltiness appears, with malt cereal, smoky sea air and stewed orchard fruit.

Finish Sherry influence on the finish with a pinch of mineral saltiness.

Reviews for Staoisha 5 Year Old 2013 - Strictly Limited (Càrn Mòr)
Refreshing choice which lies between the peat monsters of Islay, the light earthy ones from the lowlands with a pinch of fruity spirit.
I had the luck to taste this fine malt, but only just a dram of it. Relatively young but surprisingly complex in flavour. The only thing I would like to emphasis is the suprising "mentholy" taste which renders this drink a cold, refreshing feeling and somehow dampens the strengh of that 47,5°ABV.
