Description
The Bunnahabhain STIÙIREADAIR Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky is a bottling full of character from the renowned Bunnahabhain Distillery, which impressively reflects the maritime style of Islay's northernmost distillery. The name Stiùireadair, Gaelic for helmsman, refers to the distillery's close connection with the sea and its sheltered location on Bunnahabhain Bay. This Islay single malt Scotch whisky is matured in selected sherry casks, giving it a balanced combination of fruitiness, depth and a salty coastal character. Bottled at 46.3% vol., non-chill-filtered and without colorant, this bottling retains its natural texture and authentic character.
Stylistically, the Bunnahabhain Stiùireadair is a sherried Islay malt with a distinctly maritime signature. A fine sea breeze, creamy sweetness and dried fruit notes merge into a harmonious overall picture that transports the connoisseur directly to the coast of Islay. Unlike many other Islay whiskies, the focus here is not on intense peat smoke, but on balance, elegance and coastal character. The Bunnahabhain Stiùireadair is delivered in an attractive gift box, which also makes it suitable as a high-quality gift. (automated translation)

It is also a harmonious match for desserts with caramel, nuts or dried fruit. As a well-balanced, coastal Islay single malt, this bottling offers a long-lasting, elegant and origin-focused enjoyment experience. (automated translation)
