The Bunnahabhain 2005 TDu Pedro Ximenez Finish is a rare and captivating whisky, offering a perfect blend of peated and unpeated expressions for which the Bunnahabhain distillery on Islay is renowned. Aged for 15 years and bottled in 2021 by The Duchess with an ABV of 55.3%, this whisky is a testament to the distillery's exceptional craftsmanship. Limited to just 279 bottles, each sip offers a new layer of complexity, making it a true collector's item. This extraordinary expression has been matured in Pedro Ximenez casks, infusing it with a delightful mix of sweet, fruity flavors and a nuanced layer of peat smoke. The nose greets you with subtle peat smoke, intricately woven with red forest fruits like blackberries and currants, along with hints of Lapsang Souchong tea and almonds. Over time, the aroma evolves to reveal notes of apricots and honey, adding to its rich character. On the palate, the whisky delivers a smooth and creamy mouthfeel, with the mild peat smoke transforming into a barbeque campfire experience. The red forest fruits persist, balanced by the pronounced flavor of Lapsang Souchong tea. This harmony of sweet and smoky flavors showcases the distillery's versatile expertise. Bunnahabhain is traditionally known for its unpeated whiskies, but the Moine expression, with its peated profile, stands as a sterling example of the distillery's range. Often referred to as the "Queen of the Hebrides," this whisky offers an engaging and enjoyable drinking experience with every sip revealing new flavors. The seamless integration of Lapsang Souchong tea further enhances its overall harmony. This Bunnahabhain Moine Pedro Ximenez Finish whisky is a must-try for any whisky enthusiast and exemplifies the distillery's prowess in whisky-making.
This whisky is unique due to its maturation in Pedro Ximenez casks, which imparts a beautiful combination of sweet, fruity flavors and peat smoke, showcasing the Bunnahabhain distillery's skill in producing both peated and unpeated whiskies.
There were only 279 bottles produced, making this whisky a rare and highly sought-after collector's item.
