Bunnahabhain 'Adelphi' 1998 / 23 years old #2145 53.5%

An incredibly rare sight these days, this late 90's Bunnahabhain was chosen from a single refill ex-Oloroso sherry Gorda cask. Adelphi's tasting notes describe a very dense and rich whisky, laden with notes of sultanas, dried figs, quince, dark chocolate and intense fruit loaf. To taste, star anise and tobacco leaf, with caramel and salt cutting through. Waves of chocolate and caramel join intense umami savoury notes of oyster sauce and Chinese black vinegar.
