Bunnahabhain 1976 33 Year Old Mission Murray McDavid is a single malt from the Islay region that underwent an additional maturation period in fino Sherry casks. This specific finishing choice adds a dry, nutty, and herbal dimension to the spirit, contrasting sharply with the more common oloroso influences found in Islay malts. It is an elegant and balanced dram that demonstrates the art of maturation championed by the independent bottler Murray McDavid during the early 2000s. The nose offers sweet cinnamon and lush fruits, the palate delivers mouth-coating fruits and a hint of leathery smoke, and the finish is defined by the crisp, salty influence of the fino wood.

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.
