Bunnahabhain Staoisha 2013/2024 - Sig CS - Horseman No. 4

Special features: This bottling is the crowning achievement of Signatory Vintage's small, artfully crafted Horseman series. Matured in just two first-fill casks—an Oloroso sherry cask and a Pinot Noir butt—the Bunnahabhain Staoisha benefits from the intense, maritime smokiness of this Islay icon. With a limited run of 1,341 bottles, the single malt presents itself with a powerful cask strength character of 62.7% ABV and its unadulterated nature, without added coloring or chill filtration. The illustration is by Tom Thiel, known for his work with the melodic death metal band "Amon Amarth," lending the bottling a striking visual identity.

Tasting Notes:

• Nose: Intense maritime notes blend with smoky accents and a hint of dark berries.
• Palate: Full-bodied and complex with aromas of ripe dark fruits, sherry, and spicy Pinot Noir influence, supported by salty, smoky nuances.
• Finish: Long-lasting, smoky and characterized by an elegant combination of dry fruits and fine spices.

Distillery/Bottler: Bunnahabhain, one of the classic distilleries on the Scottish island of Islay, stands out for its less peaty and more maritime-spicy style. Founded in 1881, the distillery produces whiskies characterized by their balanced character. Signatory Vintage, an independent bottler, is known for carefully selected casks and limited editions, often embodying a special story and uniqueness.
