£56.00

70cl ALC 46.3%
Flag of Scotland SCOTLAND

Remarkably fresh nose, sweet with a sea-air aroma and whiffs of peat. Gentle fruit and nuts lead into spectacular malty sweetness, then beautifully rich and full-bodied. Sited on the far-eastern tip of Islay, and distilling since 1881.

Press Review

"Bunnahabhain is a bit of an outlier on Islay, as its whiskies are more sweet than peated. Adding a drop of water opens the aromas, giving this a sumptuous nose of cream and vanilla with an unctuous texture, spicy and smooth."

Bunnahabhain Distillery

Meaning "mouth of the river" Bunnahabhain sits on Islay's north eastern shore, surrounded by the hamlet that grew up around the distillery. Built around a courtyard between 1880-1883, the distillery partially resembles a Bordeaux château.

Once heavily peated, as local peat then fired the kilns drying the malt, today's Bunnahabhains are much less phenolic as the malted barley is supplied lightly peated. The onion-shaped wash stills and pear-shaped spirit stills yield Islay's least peated, most Speyside-like malt, that is round, complex and full in flavour. Part of Highland Distillers since 1887.
