Bunnahabhain 11 Year Old 2008 Manzanilla Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky
About Bunnahabhain 11 Year Old 2008 Manzanilla Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky
Bunnahabhain is one of the two Islay distilleries that produce mostly unpeated whisky with a unique nutty and spicy taste profile. The 11 Year Old 2008 Manzanilla Cask is similar in this regard, but manages to put a unique twist on their signature style. The limited-edition unpeated single malt Scotch was fully matured in Manzanilla sherry casks. Having spent 11 years in these casks in Bunnahabhain’s fabled warehouse #9 since its distillation in 2008, the resulting whisky is unique, with the casks enhancing the nutty and savory notes of the spirit. 2008 Manzanilla was bottled unfiltered in 2020 with no added coloring. Less than 10,000 bottles of this cask-strength single malt were released.

About Bunnahabhain
In Gaelic, Bunnahabhain stands for ‘mouth of the river’. Situated at the mouth of the Margadale Spring on the shore of the Sound of Islay, nested between the remote islands of Islay and Jura, Bunnahabhain was founded in 1883. Still today, sea trade and a daring spirit – at the beginning, the distillery received supplies by boat as there was no main road and building the distillery in such a remote area mustn’t have been an easy feat, either – are still at the heart of the Single Malts production, even though the last puffer boats docked in 1993 as a new main road was built in the 1960s.
Today, Bunnahabhain whiskies are once again non-chill filtered and have a natural color at 46.3% ABV to honor the way whisky was made on-site at the very beginning. In 2014, Bunnahabhain was purchased by Burn Stewart that later merged with Distell. This brought more investment and extended the portfolio range of beloved single malts to much delight from fans and critics alike.
About Scotch
Scotch is the most popular whisky in the world and is considered the king of them all! There are five whisky regions in Scotland (six if you count the not officially recognized Islands), and each of them produces spirits with unique properties and distinct tasting notes. (The type of grain used determents the type of the scotch.)
Malt whisky is made of malted barley, and grain whisky uses other grains like corn or wheat. Most of the time, a whisky is blended from different distilleries hence the name blended scotch, but if a malt whisky is produced in a single distillery, we get something extraordinary called a single malt.
