Part of Cadenhead's 12th Small Batch release, a range exclusive in Canada to KWM. This whisky was distilled on the 26th of January (our Scotch Guy's birthday!) in 2005. It is a marriage of two barrels, casks 42 and 43 and bottled at 46%.
Distiller's Tasting Note
Nose: A fantastically balanced nose of olive oil, smoked mackerel and dried herbs.
Palate: Smokiness is dryer than the nose, prominent but not overpowering. Ashy and with a little sea salt.
Finish: A dry finish, again ash and sea salt. The smoky party continues all the way down!
Distillery Fact: This Bunnahabhain has been distilled using a higher peating level than the distillery normally uses creating a smokier style of Bunnahabhain.

A few years back Bunnahabhain bumped their strength up to 46.3%, bottling it without colouring or chill-filtering. This is the entry level bottling of the Bunnahabhain Distillery, known as the "Gentle Giant of Islay." Bunnahabhain's whisky is generally unpeated, bucking the trend of most Islay distilleries, though it does also produce peated malts. Bunnahabhain is the anchor whisky of the Black Bottle Blend.
Producer Description
"As the original member of our current Core Range, Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old holds a special place in our hearts. First launched in 1979, the Bunnahabhain 12 year old has endured almost 40 years, thanks to the passion and dedication of our distillery team, not to mention the love and support from our fans and friends around the world.
"Our 12 Year Old has set the tone and the benchmark for the rest of the range – only the best will do. Double Matured in Ex Bourbon and Ex Sherry Casks, this whisky is beautifully rich and full-bodied, achieving the perfect balance of the characteristic nutty and sherry flavours of Bunnahabhain."
