This is a marriage of four American oak hogsheads from the Bunnahabhain distillery, made in a rarer peated style, distilled in 2014 and aged form more than seven years. A dram full of decadent chocolate and pleasant fruit , rounded out by some brine and dense smoke. 2,185 bottles produced.
Tasting Notes: Nose: Runny caramel, Belgian chocolate seashells, a hot malted milk drink, thick coated chocolate biscuits and a creamy chocolate milkshake. Hints of cooked orchard fruits and tobacco leaf at the back.
Palate: Honey-roasted parsnip and smoked, crispy bacon. Lots of brininess and some dried figs combine nicely with well integrated bonfire smoke.
Finish: Ash and orange-dark-chocolate along with a touch of thyme. Thick, dense wood smoke remains.
