About the distillery
Bunnahabhain Distillery is the northernmost and most remote on the island of Islay and was opened in 1883 to make use of excess cereals from local farmers. The name Bunnahabhain is translated as the ‘mouth of the river’, and if you ever visit, you will see that the distillery is built near the mouth of the Margadale river, which runs out in Sound of Islay. Profit Bú-Na-Ha-Friend, this Islay Single Malt Scotch whiskey is quite separated from the many others on the island, given the wonderfully gentle flavoring profile, as it is known for.
