Bunnahabhain (pronounced ‘Bunn-na-ha-venn’), synonymous with exceptional Islay whiskies, has again proven its dedication to whisky-making by releasing two limited edition single malts for the Scottish Fèis Ìle 2024 . The festival, which attracts whisky lovers from around the globe, celebrates Islay’s rich whisky heritage and the vibrant community that keeps the tradition alive.
The Fèis Ìle 2024: 14-year-old Ruby Port Cask Finish , bottled at a robust ABV or alcohol by volume of 58.7%, is a testament to Bunnahabhain’s innovative spirit. By finishing the whisky in Ruby Port Hogsheads after initial maturation in Bourbon casks, the distillery has created a unique expression that marries the candied fruit notes of Ruby Port with Bunnahabhain’s signature creamy and malty character.
The result is a bold and flavorful dram with hints of cherries, dark chocolate, and red berries, culminating in a lingering, spicy finish. For those seeking an exceptional whisky experience, the Fèis Ìle 2024: 23-year-old Triple Sherry Wood Finish is a cask strength release showcasing the distillery’s mastery of sherry cask maturation. Distilled in 1999 and expertly married by Master Blender Julieann Fernandez , this expression unites the finest Amontillado, Manzanilla, and Oloroso sherry casks to create a whisky of unparalleled depth and complexity.
With an ABV of 53.3%, each.
