Bunnahabhain Stiureadair Unaged Single Malt Whisky 70cl

Building our distillery in such a remote location wasn’t the easy choice, but it was the right one. Chosen for its gentle coastal climate, abundance of clear spring water and natural harbour, the mouth of the river- or Bunnahabhain- became home to a unique, unpeated Islay whisky. What our founders probably didn’t count on was the impact the coast would have on the very essence of this distinctive single malt whisky. Because we mature our whisky at the distillery, in shoreline warehouses that are continually exposed to the elements, the sea leaves an indelible mark and can be tasted in every bottle of Bunnahabhain. This coastal influence has been exposed in the fresh and vibrant Stiuireadair (pronounced stew-rahdur). To create Stiuireadair our Blender, has selected first and second fill sherry casks with spirit of varying ages and warehouse locations to construct a dram that truly exposes the coastal nature of the Bunnahabhain single malt whisky. Whilst not losing the sherry influence everyone knows and loves in the famous 12 year old, we believe this new release has instigated a costal storm in Stiuireadair.
