Bunnahabhain Distillery, located on the picturesque coast of the Isle of Islay, was founded in 1881 and is known for its unique, unpeated whiskies. The distillery originally relied on sea trade and experienced a turning point in 1960 with the construction of a new road that improved logistics. After a brief closure in the 1930s and the last ship arrival in 1993, the road became the main supply route. In 2006, after the takeover by Burn Stewart Distillers, the brand profile was given a modern makeover. The water for the whiskies comes from chalky springs and is piped to the distillery without contact with peat, which gives the whiskies their mild, characteristic flavour.
AONADH, derived from Gaelic and meaning “union”, is a 10-year-old single malt Scotch whisky that is created through harmonious maturation in carefully selected sherry casks. After this initial maturation, Bunnahabhain AONADH receives an exceptional finish in port wine casks, giving it an extra dimension of flavour and complexity.
