Small batch distilled. Natural colour un-chill filtered. An alluring complex bouquet with aroma of dried fruits toasted nuts with vanilla and a delicate coastal influence Russet gold, this is a complex 12 Year Old with hidden depths. Aromatic fruity floral scents with the most subtle hints of smoke prepare the palate for sweet fruit and nuts with a vanilla and caramel finale. Andrew Brown Distillery Manager Tasting Notes Colour: russet gold. Nose: fresh and aromatic, fruity floral with hints of dried fruit and a subtle prevalence of smoke. Palate: light with fruit notes, nutty flavours with a sweetness and slight hints of vanilla and caramel. Finish: lingering, beautifully rich and full bodied. On the remote north-eastern coastline of the enchanting Isle of Islay lies Bunnahabhain Distillery. The warming oceanic winds which sweep across the Sound of Islay and through the rugged landscape to the distillery, help cocoon the casks as they mature into distinctive malts. The idyllic location of Bunnahabhain (pronounced Bu-na-ha-venn and meaning 'mouth of the river' in Gaelic) was discovered in 1881 when the only real way to access this isolated corner of the island was by sea. Today the adventurous will still be rewarded by discovering the many subtle layers of this welcoming malt.
