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.

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

I love a little tot of this delightful malt.
My First taste ever from this distillery of this excellent 12 yo I was expecting it to be a bit harsh on the back of the throat like some are, But i must admit i was entirely wrong. I can taste the slight sweetness & how clean tasting.Would like it to be slightly more peated am i being finicky.Would highly recommend and definitely buy again 5 Stars
I think it's one of the best for 12yo. Very good experience!
Thought I'd try something new with this one. It wasn't bad. I'm glad I did try it. It's overall well balanced with light coffee with a hint of smoke finished with a herbal and salty flavour which doesn't suit all. I thought it was OK. Definitely not bad and I would happily drink again but I personally would not rush into buying a bottle. Or if I do buy a bottle it would be one which I'd have once In awhile. Please don't think I'm slating the bottle at all, I just prefer others that's all.
Excellent, would recommend to anyone who loves a good scotch.
