A bottling of Bunnahabhain issued by Moon Imports of Italy, specifically as part of their "Sails" mini-series. Distilled in 1979 and bottled in 1993, this is an old-school, oily Islay malt with dry, woody peat on the nose and palate. The palate adds cooked, jammy fruit and a subtle hint of baking spice before a delicate finish.

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.
