Bunnahabhain 1988 Private Cellar
Lot number: 091-2991
Winning bid: £80
Bunnahabhain started production in 1883 and currently the majority of the spirit it produces is lightly peated; although since 2012 around 20% of the output has been peated at 35-45ppm. Sheltered from the Atlantic, this lighter Islay whisky has an important role in Cutty Sark as well as Black Bottle, while its standing as a single malt has increased since it dropped colouring, chill filtering, and increased the bottling strength of its core range to 46.3% ABV.
Selected by Master Distiller Roderick Christie for Forbes Ross & Co Ltd, Rutherglen, Glasgow aka Speyside Distillers.
Distilled: 1988
Bottled: 2003
43% ABV / 70cl
