Bunnahabhain Staoisha 8 Years Old 2013 Artist Collective 6.7 Single Malt Scotch Whisky 700mL

This Bunnahabhain Staoisha 8 Years Old is a heavy peated delight, distilled in 2013 and bottled in 2022. Matured in Dechar/Rechar hogshead and bottled at a powerful 57.1% ABV by LMDW for their Artist Collective 6 series, this whisky is a true masterpiece. The nose is a feast for the senses with notes of seaweed, charred wood, marine peat, and smoked bacon.
On the palate, it is surprisingly soft and sweet at first, but quickly develops into a bold and intense flavor of charred wood and smoked nori, leaving a lasting impression. The mouthfeel is rich and oily, coating the palate in a smoky and savory taste that lingers long after each sip. The finish is a perfect balance of smokiness and sweetness, reminiscent of smoked lemon sorbet, leaving you wanting more.
