Bunnahabhain 1998 23 Year Old Calvados Cask, Feis Ile 2022

Countless treasures have washed up in Bunnahabhain Bay since they crafted their first exceptional single malts in 1881.

More than a century later, they still welcome far-flung riches to help shape their distinctive drams – just like this special edition that was created exclusively for Feis Ile 2022. Bursting with character, it slumbered peacefully for two decades on their shores before spending the last two years of its life in casks which once held the finest French Calvados.

This Gallic influence has imbued every golden drop with sublime sweetness; flavours of apples and pears tumbling gently with toffee and oily fruitiness and leading to a strong and spicy finish.

Non-chill filtered and natural colour.

Tasting notes:
Nose : Barley sugar, pear drops, toffee apples. Followed by a burst of dates and a floral top note like conifer trees.
Taste : Sweet and fruity, lots of green apple and pear candies. Some signature cereal, oily notes of Bunnahabhain and more toffee mixed with dried fruits.
Finish : Spicy powerful then floral on the palate.
