About
There's a moment in our coastal warehouses that visitors never forget; tasting whisky straight from the cask. No dilution. No polish. Just spirit in its purest form. This year's 12 Year Old Cask Strength was inspired by that experience and the thousands who have sipped straight from the cask at our bay-side distillery.
-
MATURATION JOURNEY
Matured entirely in our coastal warehouses, this limited edition cask strength release draws on a combination of predominantly second fill Oloroso casks with just enough first fill and refill influence to add depth, not distraction. It’s a whisky that delivers clarity, structure and restraint.

TASTING NOTES
The sherry influence is delicate, never dominant, allowing our unpeated Islay spirit to express itself fully.
NOSE
Golden raisins and apricots are balanced with toasted nuts and a light floral note.
PALATE
Malty sweetness, soft oak, and dried fruit intertwine with sultanas, hazelnuts, and gentle spice.
FINISH
Oak spice and light tobacco, with a gentle touch of sea salt and cocoa powder.

Flavour Profile
Natural Colour
Deep gold, as nature intended. Without added colouring, every shade reflects the influence of time spent maturing in a combination of first, second and re-fill Oloroso casks.
Non-chill Filtered
Non-chill filtered to preserve the whisky's full depth of flavour, texture and character.
Our Difference
UNPEATED ISLAY
Unlike other distilleries on Islay, Bunnahabhain is known for its iconic, unpeated Islay Single Malt Whisky.
A ROAD LESS TRAVELLED
Situated on the Sound of Islay, Bunnahabhain is the most northerly distillery, only accessible by boat until 1960. Now by single track road, it is an adventure for whisky enthusiasts.
TALLEST ON ISLAY
Bunnahabhain's pear-shaped stills are the tallest on Islay. Their unusually long swan necks promote a lighter, delicate spirit character as heavier flavour compounds can't reach the summit.
UNCOMPROMISING SPIRIT
Non-chill filtered with no added colour, Bunnahabhain is a robust, oily spirit that stands up to full maturation in sherry and bottlings at cask strength.
Our whisky is known for being unpeated, natural colour and non-chillfiltered.
