An extraordinary expression of mature Islay whisky, the Bunnahabhain 36 Year Old 1980 Canasta Finish is a rare and deeply complex single malt that showcases the distillery’s hallmark richness and maritime elegance.

 

After decades of maturation in Oloroso sherry casks, this exceptional whisky was finished in barrels that previously held Williams & Humbert Canasta Cream Sherry, adding an extra layer of indulgent sweetness and depth. The result is a beautifully sherry-forward profile, bursting with dried fruit richness, nutty warmth, and refined oak character.

 

Bunnahabhain’s signature style, lightly peated, waxy, and coastal, shines through the maturity, creating a whisky that is both powerful and elegant. This is a dram for contemplative sipping, offering a journey through time with every glass.

 

Tasting Notes

  • Palate: Layered and balanced with sweet dried fruits, dark chocolate, and ground espresso.

  • Finish: Long, mouth-coating, and luxurious with lingering sweetness and oak spice.
