Overview

About the Moine Brandy

Whilst known for being the un-peated Islay malt, Bunnahabhain does produce its very own ‘Mòine’ which means ‘Peated’ in Scots Gaelic. After spending years in our coastal warehouse, maturing in sherry casks, we have, for the first time in the distillery’s history, transferred our Mòine to brandy casks, for another 3 years of maturation. By finishing the whisky for three years in brandy casks, we have married the rich grape and dried fruit flavours with the nutty, sweet, smoky character of Mòine. Truly distinctive.
