Bunnahabain, Islay, Scotland, May 2025

Roger's car couldn't fit all of us, so Leo went for a bike ride and Hal and Julie went to Lagavulin and the rest of us piled in for the drive from the SW to the NE part of the island. From Bunnahabain, you can see the Isle of Jura. 




We sat in the cold caskroom for the tasting. The Oloroso was made from water from the Margedail River. It had been in 2 other Oloroso casks prior. The Canasta was in Oloroso then in Pedro Ximenez sherry casks. The cream sherry (cask 0201-556) was in Oloroso. The 2017 was red-wine casked. I bought some of this to take home.







There's always crazy shit that you can't even dream of buying:
