The Bunnahabhain 2014 SV Staoisha from the esteemed Signatory Vintage's "The Un-Chillfiltered Collection - Very Cloudy" range offers a unique experience for whisky enthusiasts. Distilled in 2014 at the renowned Bunnahabhain Distillery on Islay and bottled by Signatory Vintage in 2021, this 6-year-old Scotch whisky exemplifies the art of preserving full flavor profiles. With an ABV of 40% and limited to just 930 bottles, this expression stands out with its decision to forego chill filtration. This choice ensures that all fatty acids from the barley are retained, allowing the whisky to fully express its complex and rich array of flavors. The result is a slightly cloudy appearance that adds a special touch to any whisky collection.
The "Very Cloudy" label indicates that the whisky has not undergone chill filtration. This process retains all fatty acids and results in a richer, fuller flavor profile with a slightly cloudy appearance.
Signatory Vintage chose to avoid chill filtration for this whisky to preserve its full range of flavors and aromas, which are often diminished through the chill filtration process.
The lack of chill filtration retains more aromatic compounds and fatty acids from the barley, resulting in a richer, more complex flavor profile.
The Bunnahabhain 2014 SV Staoisha "The Un-Chillfiltered Collection - Very Cloudy" is a delightful creation that showcases the benefits of forgoing chill filtration. Its rich, unaltered flavors and slightly cloudy appearance are a testament to traditional whisky making. This expression offers a rare depth of character, making it a must-have for any serious whisky connoisseur. Its complex interplay of peat, spice, vanilla, and seaweed delivers an unforgettable tasting journey that lingers long after the last sip.
