Bunnahabhain Stiùireadair – the name translates as "helmsman" in Gaelic, which feels entirely apt for a whisky guiding you toward the sherry-influenced side of Islay. Bottled at 46.3% and filling the role of the much-loved 12 Year Old, it has all the hallmarks of this coastal distillery: a pleasingly light body, hazelnut and dried fruit on the nose, and a palate of creamy caramel threaded with sea salt and a gentle warmth of cinnamon. The finish sticks around rather longer than you might expect.
