Bunnahabhain (Staoisha) 11 Year Old 2013 (Thompson Bros.) Single Malt Scotch Whisky | 700ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Persian dried limes, redcurrants, salted almond praline, lobster roll, black cherries, Ghormeh Sabzi, mechanics toolbox and fruity smoke.

Palate: The smoke is enveloping, initially, the red fruits continue before turning quite acidic and savoury. The cask is in great balance with the powerful spirit. The mechanical aspect continues with a touch of WD/40, some iodine tinctures and a bit of hydraulic fluid.

Finish: Peat steals the show on the finish but doesn’t dominate, cranberry follows along with nougat.

Distillery Information

Bunnahabhain is a distillery situated on the north coast of Islay. The distillery was founded in 1881, and today it produces a variety of whisky styles. Bunnahabhain is best known for its unpeated whiskies, which are light and fruity in style. The distillery also produces peated whiskies, which are more robust and smoky in character. Regardless of style, all of Bunnahabhain’s whiskies are renowned for their smoothness and balance. Deriving from the Gaelic for ‘mouth of the river’, Bunnahabhain was founded in 1881 by William Robertson and brothers James and William Greenless. A very smooth, easy-drinking Islay malt, Bunnahabhain (pronounced ‘BOO-na-HAven’) closed and reopened twice during the twentieth century and eventually production was limited to a mere few weeks annually following Edrington’s 1999 acquisition of previous owners Highland Distillers.
