Bunnahabhain 18 years old Small Batch Distilled - 70cl

Bunnahabhain 18 Years Old est un single malt écossais d’Islay acclamé, célèbre pour avoir défié le profil traditionnel de l’île en privilégiant un caractère non tourbé, riche et intensément maturé en sherry. Contrairement à ses voisins d’Islay célèbres pour leur fumée lourde, cette expression se distingue par son influence côtière associée à une douceur sherry profonde.
