Product details
Bunnahabhain, established in 1881 on the remote Sound of Islay, has long embraced the road less travelled. Unlike most Islay distilleries, it is famed for its iconic unpeated single malt whisky, distilled in the tallest pear-shaped stills on the island. These unusually long swan necks yield a lighter, delicate spirit that retains remarkable depth through decades of maturation. Non-chill filtered and bottled without added colour, this uncompromising, oily spirit showcases the distillery’s dedication to authenticity and time-honoured craft.
The Bunnahabhain 40 Year Old is a feast of tropical fruits and rich, sweet complexity. On the nose, it unfolds with hints of banana, berries, creamy toffee, vanilla, and delicate sweet oak, while the palate delivers layers of sweet malt, creamy caramel, ripe pineapple, toasted nuts, and soft waves of tropical fruit. The finish is long, sweet, and deeply fruity, making this a single malt to truly behold. Enjoy it with dark chocolate truffles or aged Manchego cheese to complement its lush, decadent character.
