Description

The Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old is a flagship single malt from the Islay distillery, first introduced in 1979. Unlike many other Islay whiskies, Bunnahabhain is known for its unpeated spirit, allowing its coastal influence and cask-driven flavors to take center stage. This expression is aged in a combination of bourbon and sherry casks.

Nose
Fresh, sweet, and a little floral. There's seaweed, rich malt, dried fruit, camphor, caramel, chocolate orange, and apple poached in cinnamon.
Palate
Soft and supple with a nutty, sherried quality leading among vanilla, marmalade, sultanas, and a bright coastal element.
Finish
Mochaccino, dried herbs, Christmas cake spice, and a balanced salty tang.
