BunnahabhainCeòbanach (Batch 01)
Summary
Bunnahabhain Ceòbanach Batch No 01 is a single malt whisky that hails from the renowned Bunnahabhain distillery in Scotland. This expression is aged for 10 years, allowing it to develop a well-rounded character that appeals to both novice and seasoned whisky drinkers. The name 'Ceòbanach' translates to 'smoky mist' in Scots Gaelic, hinting at the whisky's peated profile, which is a departure from the typically unpeated Bunnahabhain offerings.
On the nose, this whisky presents a complex bouquet of aromas, with prominent notes of peat smoke intertwined with hints of citrus and maritime influences. The palate is equally intriguing, offering a harmonious blend of smoky and sweet flavors, with layers of vanilla, oak, and a touch of spice. The mouthfeel is rich and oily, providing a satisfying and lingering experience.
The finish is long and warming, with the peat smoke gradually fading to reveal subtle undertones of dried fruits and a gentle sweetness. This whisky is a testament to Bunnahabhain's craftsmanship, showcasing a balanced and nuanced profile that is both approachable and deeply satisfying.
