Stiùireadair - pronounced 'stew-rahdur', which means 'imonier' in Scottish Gaelic - is the latest addition to the Bunnahabhain family. With its briny, iodized flavor, this sherried malt takes you on a journey to Bunnahabhain Bay. To create her blend, Bunnahabhain's master blender Kirstie selected whiskies of different ages from a variety of warehouse locations to create a dram that truly reflects the coastal character of Bunnahabhain's single malt whiskies. Without losing the sherry influence that everyone knows and loves from the famous 12-year-old, Kirstie has created a storm in Stiùireadair.
