Bunnahabhain 12 Year Cask Strength 112.8 Proof Single Malt Whisky 700mL

• This is a 12year old, unpeated Islay single malt from Bunnahabhain, bottled at full cask strength. 

• The 2025 edition is made primarily from second-fill Oloroso sherry casks, with a selection of first-fill and refill casks added for nuance. 

• It is non-chill-filtered and has no added colouring, aiming to preserve the whisky’s natural character.

• The coastal warehouses of Bunnahabhain (on Islay) contribute a salty, maritime influence to the spirit.

Tasting Notes

Nose (Aroma):

• Golden raisins and apricots. 

• Toasted nuts, especially hazelnuts / almonds. 

• A subtle floral lift and a hint of sea brine / maritime air. 

Palate (Taste):

• Malty sweetness with dried fruits (sultanas, figs). 

• Nutty character (hazelnut) combined with soft oak spice. 

• Gentle warming spice — not overly aggressive — balancing with the high ABV. 

Finish:

• Long and layered: oak spice, light tobacco, and a whisper of sea salt. 

• Cocoa or dark chocolate nibs come through in the aftertaste. 

• A lingering saline note, reinforcing its coastal Islay origin.
