Bunnahabhain Has Unveiled Two Highly Sought-After Spirits
Bunnahabhain debuts two very sought-after and rare single malt releases — the 30-year-old and 40-year-old single malts, both of which are now available in the U.S. These expressions exemplify the distillery's commitment to craftsmanship and tradition. Matured in sherry casks, the whiskies are designed to appeal to serious connoisseurs and collectors. The taste they offer consumers is indicative of Islay's heritage and the complexities that develop through extensive aging.
The 30-year-old rare ingle malt, priced at approximately $999.99, showcases flavors of butterscotch and sweet sherry, with a palate rich in strawberries, toffee, and a lingering finish of spiced oak. In contrast, the 40-year-old variant, retailing at around $3,785.99, presents a more tropical profile, featuring notes of banana, berries, and creamy toffee, finishing with a long, sweet, fruity aftertaste.
