    Product details

    Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old

    The fantastic flagship from Bunnahabhain (pronounced boo-na-ha-ven), launched as the distillery's original single malt in 1979, this Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old. It is aged in a mixture of bourbon and sherry casks and, since a relaunch in 2010, has been bottled at a big 46.3% ABV without chill-filtration or additional colouring. Very impressive. Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old is unpeated, unlike most Islay whisky, but has a beautiful coastal quality complemented by its fruity, light, sweet and nutty character. It’s one of those whiskies that newcomers and enthusiasts alike appreciate.

    Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

    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.

    Reviews for Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old

    Being relatively new to scotch, i don't have much to compare this to other than the contents of the advent calendar I treated myself to last year. I have learned I don't like smokey varieties and this is well clear of that. Very nice over a single ice cube.

    Not to bad

    It's a decent whisky, but way to expensive where we are, ($120+) so it'll be a once only since there is so much better out there in it's price range. It was my brother in-laws parrots fav whisky though, so we had to take it off him.

    A favourite!

    I bought a bottle earlier in the year and enjoyed it so much that my birthday gave an easy excuse for another! Rich, rounded and mellow it is a great late evening whisky and for me now a favourite.
