Bunnahabhain 1978 26 Year Old Sherry Signatory

Bunnahabhain 43 Year Old 1967 Malts of Scotland

To finish this line-up of Bunnahabhain in beauty, I will try a 43 Year Old. It was distilled on 27th March 1967 and bottled in June 2010.

The first was a 16 Year Old Bunnahabhain on refill sherry hogshead, this one is a 22 Year Old on bourbon. Let us get to it! Surprising nose. Not many maritime elements, although they linger on the horizon, but mostly graeffe...
