The Coterie Exclusive 17 Year Old White Port and Moscatel Cask Finish

Crafted exclusively for those in our community, The Coterie Exclusive is a whisky shaped by patience, precision and thoughtful cask selection. Matured for 17 years, this expression explores the interplay between two distinctive wine cask finishes: White Port and Moscatel. Together, these whiskies create a single malt that is both layered and balanced, where sweetness is never overpowering, and elegance remains at the forefront. Beneath it all, Bunnahabhain’s signature unpeated, coastal character endures, providing structure and clarity throughout. Crafted in limited quantities and reserved for our community, this is a whisky that rewards time, attention and shared appreciation.

Matured for 17 years, this expression begins its journey in refill casks, allowing the spirit to develop while preserving Bunnahabhain’s naturally unpeated and maritime character.  From there, a significant portion was finished in Moscatel wine casks for 9.5 years, building depth, richness and aromatic intensity over time. A further parcel is finished in White Port casks for 15 months, introducing brightness, freshness and balance.  The result is a carefully composed single malt, where each cask influence plays a distinct role - layering sweetness, structure and lift while allowing the distillery’s character to remain clearly defined.
