Bunnahabhain – Saviour of Fathers Day

April 13, 2011 by Gary Leave a Comment

Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old

Bunnahabhain 12 Year Old

D-day, or rather F-Day i.e. Father’s Day is June 19th. and it may seem a long way off but as we well know, “It’s weeks away”, soon becomes “Oh no! It’s the day after tommorrow!”

So if you’re stuck for an idea then the good people at Bunnahabhain may well just have the answer.

The gentle taste of the Bunnahabhain 12-year old single malt could be the way to Fathers Day salvation and a serious number of brownie points!

The home of Bunnahabhain, (pronounced Bu-na-ha-venn) is the world-renowned Isle of Islay on the west-coast of Scotland. Unlike most other single malts from Islay, Bunnhabhain is known for its gentle taste profile and unique character with only a slight hint of smoke.
This is largely due to the malted barley being enhanced by the pure spring water that flows underground, untainted by the peaty moorlands.

It offers a wonderfully fresh and aromatic experience with a subtle whiff of smoke. The palate opens with notes of fruit and nuts that lead onto a malty sweetness, ending in a rich, lingering finish.

And to top it all this award-winning single malt looks rather stunning in it’s black gift tube. Perfect for Father’s Day!

The Bunnahabhain distillery produces three single malts; a 12, 18 and 25-year old. They are all crafted by master distiller Ian MacMillan, who has over 40 years experience in whisky distilling. So the only choices you may have to make are good ones!

So before you resign yourself to just buying the same old favourites (thinks: socks), spare a thought for Bunnahabhain.

He and his taste buds will love you for it!

Bunnahabhain can be bought from The Whisky Exchange and Master of Malt

Bunnahabhain 12-year old Tasting Notes
The nose offers a fresh and aromatic experience with a subtle whiff of smoke floating through the air. The taste starts with a light fruit and nut appeal that leads to a spectacular malty sweetness, finishing into a beautifully rich full-bodied, lingering experience.

Natural colour and un-chillfiltered @ 46.3%

Two Macallans from Bonham's Rare Whisky Auction

Two Macallans from Bonham's Rare Whisky Auction

Have you got a day or two free?

Able to leave pretty much straight away?

Got a bit of loose change in your pocket?

Don’t have a fear of flying?

If you can answer YES to all four of the above then you’ve still got time to attend Bonhams first Whisky and Wine sales of 2011 in New York.

In the early evening of Thursday April 14 (April 14, 5pm EST, Bonhams New York to be precise), Bonhams will hold Whisky, a 322-lot sale that includes three notable private collections, along with a variety of other Scottish single malt whisky consignments.

The auction is dominated by three notable private collections. The first two are consigned from an East Coast collector and a whisky aficionado from Virginia. They both represent a wide, eclectic mix of Scottish single malt whiskies, including whiskies for current drinking, rare bottlings from independents, and sought-after rarities.

Highlights include:-

  • a Macallan Private Eye individually numbered bottle (est. $600-800 / £368 – £491);
  • a 12-year-old Ghillie’s Dram Macallan (est. $450-600 / £276 – £368);
  • three bottles of Ardbeg 1974 Provenance (est. $600-900 / £368 – £552 per bottle);
  • two bottles of Black Bowmore 1964 (est. $2,800-3,500 / £1,700 – £2,150 per bottle).

A third collection comes from a Brooklyn consignor featuring exceptional rarities, including:-

  • Macallan 55 year old in Lalique decanter (est. $16,000-22,000 / £9,800 – £13,500, which is pictured above);
  • Macallan 57 year old in Lalique decanter (est. $15,000-20,000 / £9,200 – £12,300, pictured above);
  • Glenfiddich 50 year old (est. $15,000-20,000 / £9,200 – £12,300);
  • the Bowmore Trilogy (est. $15,000-20,000 / £9,200 – £12,300);
  • a six-bottle Springbank Millennium Set (est. $9,000-12,000 / £5,500 – £7,350);
  • a six bottle original wooden presentation case Macallan-Speymalt set (est. $8,000-12,000 / £4,900 – £7,350).

Did I say a bit of loose change in your pocket?

Might need a trip to the ATM …
