ABOUT THE DISTILLERY
Located on the coast in the North of the Isle of Islay, overlooking the Paps of Jura, Bunnahabhain (pronounced Boonahaaven) was founded in 1881 with production starting in 1883.
Bunnahabhain Distillery was temporarily mothballed in 1982 and reopened in 1984 although from 1999 there were only a few weeks production a year. In 2003 the distillery was sold and has the biggest potential production on Islay.
Bunnahabhain Whisky is made with lightly peated malted barley and spring water from Margdale river, the whisky is used for Single Malts as well as blends.
