Tasting Notes
Bunnahabhain's 17 Year Old 2002 Madeira Cask Finish is a true gem, crafted with care for the discerning whisky enthusiast. Distilled in 2002, this exceptional dram spent years maturing in the coastal warehouses, soaking in the sea-kissed air before being treated to a three-year finish in Madeira casks. The result is a symphony of flavors that dances on the palate. The nose greets with a captivating blend of sweet ripe figs, creamy berries, and tangy orange marmalade, subtly accented by hints of nutmeg. On the palate, layers of complexity unfold, revealing sweet vanilla notes, caramelized fruit, and rich spicy cinnamon, all intertwined with raisins and whispers of dry oak. The finish is dry yet warmly satisfying, fading into a lingering sweet marmalade farewell. With only 1,164 bottles released at a robust 56.9% ABV, this limited edition is a true ode to the spirit of Fèis Ìle, inviting you to savor the essence of Islay from the comfort of your home.
