Crafed to honour Lillian MacArthur's 50 years at Bunnahabhain, this distillery exclusive unites five exceptional casks spanning five decades into one remarkable whisky.

  • About

    This limited edition, distillery exclusive single malt celebrates an extraordinary milestone of Lillian MacArthur's 50 years of dedication to Bunnahabhain. For five decades, her commitment, knowledge and passion have been woven into the fabric of our Islay distillery. To honour her, we present this distillery exclusive bottling.

  • MATURATION JOURNEY

    A marriage of five exceptional casks spanning fives decades: 1975 Marsala, 1989 Moscatel Wine, 1997 Moine Manzanilla, 2007 Oloroso and 2014 Bourbon. Each cask was carefully selected to reflect a facet of Lillian's remarkable character, combining sweet, fruity, nutty, and subtly savoury notes. The result is a single malt layered with complexity, balancing richness and depth with an intriguing dry edge and a delicate twist of smoke.

  • Delivery & Returns

    Arrives in 2-3 business days. Delivery & Returns.

SMAAKNOTITIES

Rich sweetness, warming spice and gentle coastal smoke come together in a whisky worthy of Lillian's remarkable 50 years of service.

NEUS
Zesty orange peel and grapefruit lead to honey drizzled almonds, pecan brittle, cracked peppercorns, spiced ginger biscuits, and sea spray. A lift of brioche and white florals.
SMAAKPALLET
Caramel and bourbon vanilla meet golden raisins and sticky toffee pudding. Cinnamon, chilli chocolate and nutmeg dusted hazelnuts meet soft leather and coastal peat.
AFWERKING
Long and lingering gentle citrus zest, sweet spice, roasted nuts and salted caramel. Coca-dusted almonds, a trace of peat smoke, and a delicate thread of honeyed oak unfold.

Flavour Profile

Natural Colour

Chestnut, as nautre intended. Without added colouring, every shade reflects the influence of time spent maturing in a combination of Marsala, Moscatel Wine, Manzanilla, Oloroso and Bourbon.

Non-chill Filtered

Non-chill filtered to preserve the whisky's full depth of flavour, texture and character.
I’ve been incredibly lucky to spend my whole working life at Bunnahabhain. The people here are like family, and the distillery has always felt like home. I have a real loyalty to the distillery, and I am incredibly proud to be part of its heritage.
Lillian MacArthur, Distillery Administrator

Our Difference

UNPEATED ISLAY

UNPEATED ISLAY

In tegenstelling tot andere distilleerderijen op Islay, staat Bunnahabhain bekend om zijn iconische, niet-geturfde Islay Single Malt Whisky.

EEN MINDER BELOPEN PAD

EEN MINDER BELOPEN PAD

Gelegen aan de Sound of Islay is Bunnahabhain de meest noordelijke distilleerderij, die tot 1960 alleen per boot bereikbaar was. Nu via een smalle weg, is het een avontuur voor whiskyliefhebbers.

HOOGSTE OP ISLAY

HOOGSTE OP ISLAY

De peervormige distilleerketels van Bunnahabhain zijn de hoogste op Islay. Hun ongewoon lange zwaanhalzen bevorderen een lichtere, delicate karakter van de spirit, omdat zwaardere smaakstoffen de top niet kunnen bereiken.

ONVERWISSELBARE GEEST

ONVERWISSELBARE GEEST

Niet gekoeld gefilterd en zonder toegevoegde kleur, is Bunnahabhain een robuuste, olieachtige drank die goed bestand is tegen volledige rijping in sherry en bottelingen op vatsterkte.

Our whisky is known for being unpeated, natural colour and non-chillfiltered.
