BUNNAHABHAIN 1978 30 YEAR OLD MURRAY MCDAVID MISSION ISLAY SINGLE MALT
Description
BUNNAHABHAIN 1978 30 YEAR OLD MURRAY MCDAVID MISSION ISLAY SINGLE MALT Distilled: 1978Aged in a combination of Sherry & Port casksBottle Number: 289 / 57353% ABV / 70cl Purpose built in 1881 by William Baxter, Bunnahabhain distillery on the northeast coast of Islay featured housing for its workers, as well as its own pier for ease of transporting whisky and materials to and from the mainland. As with most distilleries, much of its life was spent producing blending stock, but in the late 1980s it began to appear as a single malt. Initially this single malt output was mostly sherry matured and so lightly peated as to be barely perceptible, placing Bunna’ firmly in the minority of Islay whiskies. However, since its takeover by Distell in 2013 around 20% of the spirit produced there is now heavily peated, with these expressions bearing the name “Moine” (the Gaelic word for peat).
