Bunnahabhain Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The Bunnahabhain Distillery (pronounced Boon-a-havn and meaning rivermouth in Gaelic) was built in 1881 on the north-eastern tip of the enchanting isle of Islay. It was incorporated in 1882 by the Islay Distillery Co. and then later merged with Wm. Grant & Co. to form Highland Distillers. Burn Stewart Distillers Ltd. acquired Bunnahabhain and the distillery in 2003 along with Black Bottle. 

Burn Stewart Distillers Ltd. carried out extensive research amongst its consumers and 
ultimately decided to evolve and update the look of the brand. A “journey of discovery” lies at the heart of the brand. It encompasses a distinguished heritage, a remote idyllic environment whose geography and history are entwined with hardy seafaring lore and, above all, a liquid with a unique, surprisingly gentle and delicate taste profile. 

The gentle taste of Bunnahabhain is due partly to the lightly peated malted barley used in its creation as well as the pure spring waters of the Margadale River, trapped underground away from the peaty moorlands. The nose offers a fresh and aromatic experience with a subtle whiff of smoke floating through the air. The taste starts with a light fruit and nut appeal that leads to a spectacular malty sweetness, finishing into a beautifully rich, full-bodied, lingering experience. 

Bunnahabhain Islay Single Malt Scotch Whisky has been adding to its portfolio with the long awaited release of two exciting new mature additions, an 18 year old and a 25 year old. These charming single malts are unequivocally inviting, with a gentle taste profile that makes them quite distinct from many other Islay whiskies. The Bunnahabhain journey is one to be enjoyed by all. 

Bunnahabhain has a growing presence in a number of markets, notably in the U.K., Sweden, Northern Europe and the United States. The brand continues to enjoy strong year on year growth and is now distributed in over 20 countries around the world.
