Bunnahabhain 12 Years

A standout Islay single malt whisky, known for its rich character and smooth, unpeated style. Unlike most Islay whiskies, it forgoes heavy smoke, allowing its complex sherry-influenced profile to take center stage. This whisky is matured in a combination of first-fill and second-fill sherry and bourbon casks, creating a beautifully balanced expression with depth and warmth.

The nose reveals inviting aromas of dried fruit, roasted nuts, and a touch of sea salt, reflecting its coastal origins. Subtle hints of vanilla, caramel, and baking spices emerge, adding layers of sweetness. On the palate, Bunnahabhain 12 Years offers a velvety texture with flavors of toffee, dark chocolate, and spiced oak. The influence of sherry casks brings notes of raisins and figs, while a delicate touch of citrus brightens the profile.

The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering oak spice, a hint of salt, and a soft, warming sweetness. This well-balanced whisky is perfect for those who enjoy a refined, smooth single malt with rich sherried notes. Enjoy it neat or with a splash of water to unlock even more complexity.
