Description
The Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old is the cornerstone of this historic Islay distillery’s core range. Situated on the rugged northeastern coast of the island, the distillery is known for its tall pot stills, which help produce a lighter, more delicate spirit than its heavily peated neighbours. This 750ml expression is matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, resulting in a rich hue that is entirely natural. Bottled at 46.3% ABV and non-chill filtered, it offers an oily, full-bodied mouthfeel that has made it a favourite for those looking to buy whisky in South Africa. To fully appreciate its maritime character, enjoy it neat or with a tiny splash of water to unlock its aromatic depths.
- Nose: Fresh and aromatic with a distinct floral perfume, underscored by dried fruits and a hint of caramelised sugar.
- Palate: A beautiful interplay of sweet malt, sultanas, and rich fruitcake, followed by a savoury touch of sea salt and creamy vanilla.
- Finish: Exceptionally long and lingering, offering a warm glow of spice and a final spray of coastal brine.
