Staoisha (peated Bunnahabhain) 2013 cask # 901 / 10YO / 56.6% / Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Region: Islay
Cask: 1st Fill Ex-Bourbon Barrel
Style: Peated
Colour: Light gold.
Nose: Maritime. Smoked haddock in warm butter, really kippery.
Savoury peat-smoke initially, but then slightly sweet / burnt rubber notes emerge.
Taste: Intense. Soft, sweet peat - slightly medicinal, but with some really nice fruity notes - fresh blueberries and apricots.
Cracked black pepper at the close.
A super-approachable, unadulterated peated Islay malt.
