Built in 1881 by the Greenless Brothers, the Bunnahabhain distillery sits below the north-east tip of Islay and just north of Port Askaig. This 1963 single malt was bottled in 1997 and comes in an old-style packaging. The nose is light and fruity, featuring overripe pears, dried fruits, and a touch of smoke in the background. On the palate, the whisky swings from sweet flavours to pungent, spicy notes, including red chilli flakes and white pepper.

The Lighter Side of Islay
Often known as the "gateway malt" for those looking to explore the smoky malts of Islay, Bunnahabhain is more lightly peated than most other whiskies produced on the island. Situated on the north-eastern coast, the distillery name means "mouth of the river" in Gaelic.
Historically noted for a waxy, oily mouthfeel, low peat levels and a hint of sea spray, Bunnahabhain have since experimented with more heavily peated drams, in-keeping with the style of their island neighbours. The youngest age statement in the core range is 12 years old while limited edition cask finishes have won the distillery awards globally.
