Product Description

Bunnahabhain Islay Single Malt is a beautifully rich and full-bodied whisky, renowned for its distinctive character and exceptional depth of flavour. Since its founding in 1881, the distillery has been crafting unpeated Islay whiskies, in contrast to the typical smoky and peaty style of the island’s other distilleries. Predominantly matured in ex-sherry casks, Bunnahabhain creates a whisky that boasts an impressive complexity with sweet fruit, nuts, vanilla, and a delicate touch of coastal influence.

Named after the bay that the distillery has overlooked for over a century, Bunn-na-ha-venn (meaning ‘mouth of the river’) reflects the natural beauty and serene environment that shapes the whisky’s flavour. Non-chillfiltered and with natural colour, this whisky maintains its authentic character, offering a genuine taste of Islay. It has garnered numerous accolades, including Gold at the 2019 International Spirits Challenge and Silver at the 2020 World Whisky Awards.

Whether you're a whisky connoisseur or a newcomer to the world of single malts, Bunnahabhain provides a balanced and smooth dram with layers of fruit, nuts, and the unique influence of the island’s coastal air.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Bunnahabhain different from other Islay whiskies?

Bunnahabhain is unique because it is unpeated, unlike many other Islay distilleries that produce heavily peated whiskies. This results in a smoother, richer style with a subtle coastal influence, often characterised by sweet fruit, nuts, and vanilla.

How is Bunnahabhain Islay Single Malt Whisky aged?

Bunnahabhain is primarily aged in ex-sherry casks, which gives it a rich, full-bodied character. This maturation process enhances the whisky’s nutty and sherry-driven flavours, creating a complex and well-balanced dram.

What is the best way to enjoy Bunnahabhain 70cl?

Bunnahabhain is best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to unlock its full flavours. It can also be served over ice or used in a classic whisky cocktail, but its complexity and smoothness are best appreciated in its natural form.
