Bunnahabhain 12 Years Old Cask Strength 70cl 56.6°
This full-flavoured Single Malt offered by the Islay Bunnahabhain distillery is inspired by the tastings enjoyed by visitors in the distillery's iconic Warehouse 9.
Within these famous walls, visitors have the opportunity to taste Bunnahabhain whisky directly from the cask, hence this "Cask Strength" whisky that will delight connoisseurs. This version aged in first and second fill Oloroso Sherry casks but also in a small percentage of Bourbon casks to balance out the flavours before being bottled at 56.6°, an even higher ABV than that of the 2021 edition.
The result is a rich and intense whisky, perfect representative of the elegant and heavily Sherry-influenced style of Bunnahabhain whiskies.

Established in 1881, the Bunnahabhain distillery has developed a unique style inspired from its legacy. Its philosophy is to offer the most natural whisky, almost completely hand crafted and aged on the famous Isle of Islay.
Bunnahabhain means the “mouth of the river” in Gaelic. It is located at the mouth of the river Margadale, on the strait that separates Islay from the Isle of Jura, in the north. It has always been a famous land mark for Scottish sea-farers coming back home. The mariner we can see on each label of Bunnahabhain whisky is inspired by this anecdote.
Bunnahabhain is a noble, light and delicate whisky characterized by an exceptional mellowness and a hint of peat. In the beginning, the distillery produced an oily, peated whisky with its own malting house and its peat kilns to dry the malt. Only in 1963, with the arrival of new owners, the distillery turned to a non-peated, malted barley from which originates the fruity, spicy and maritime character of the whisky, without any peat. Over the last few years, the distillery rediscovers its legacy with the limited editions of highly peated whiskies such as the Cèobanach, meaning “smoky mist” in Gaelic, succeeding to the “Toiteach”.
