Description
Bunnahabhain Distillery, located on the picturesque coast of the Isle of Islay, was founded in 1881 and is known for its unique, unpeated whiskies. The distillery originally relied on sea trade and experienced a turning point in 1960 with the construction of a new road that improved logistics. After a brief closure in the 1930s and the last ship arrival in 1993, the road became the main supply route. In 2006, after the takeover by Burn Stewart Distillers, the brand profile was given a modern makeover. The water for the whiskies comes from chalky springs and is piped to the distillery without contact with peat, which gives the whiskies their mild, characteristic flavour.
Bunnahabhain EIRIGH NA GREINE (pronounced: ae-ree ne gray-nyuh) means “morning sky” in Gaelic and represents the light-flooded nature of this special bottling. Selected single malts are blended together for this single malt Scotch whisky, including some of the most exquisite, which have been matured in former red wine casks.
