Bunnahabhain Distillery, located on the northeastern coast of Islay, is currently undergoing a major £10.5 million renovation and expansion project. According to official statements, the distillery had become 'over-extended,' leading to the demolition of four warehouses and fifteen other buildings. The ambitious redevelopment plan includes constructing a new visitor center on the left side of the road adjacent to the distillery, scheduled for completion by late 2019 or early 2020. On the right side, former warehouse space will be repurposed for a new bottling hall and additional parking facilities. A significant portion of the investment is allocated to production equipment upgrades, including transitioning from manual to computer-controlled mashing operations. Post-renovation, the majority of Bunnahabhain's maturation will occur on Islay. The distillery's production facility features a 12.5-ton traditional stainless steel mash tun with a copper lid, six Oregon pine washbacks, and two pairs of stills. In early 2018, two washbacks were replaced, with the remaining two scheduled for replacement by the end of 2019. Fermentation times vary between 55 to 110 hours. For 2019, the distillery targets production of 2.1 million liters of new make spirit, with 40% being peated and 60% unpeated. Recent years have seen an increase in peated whisky production, with phenol levels rising to 35-45ppm. The core range comprises 12, 18, 25, and 40-year-old expressions. The flagship peated offerings include the no-age-statement Toiteach a Dha, a vatting of bourbon and sherry cask whiskies, and Stiùireadair, matured in first-fill and refill sherry casks. Limited releases from July 2019 feature a 2007 Port Pipe Finish, a 2007 French brandy cask, and a 1988 Marsala cask. Travel retail exclusives include Cruach-Mhòna, a heavily peated young expression; Eirigh Na Greine, a blend of bourbon, sherry, and red wine casks; and An Cladach, sherry cask matured. For the 2019 Feis Ile (Islay Festival of Music and Malt), two special editions were released: a 2008 Moine French oak cask and a 2001 Sauternes cask.

刚倒出来闻着有点胶皮味和生土气息,不过很快就散了。橘子酱、英国棕酱和烟斗丝混在一起,挺上头的。喝起来先是胡椒和黑巧,接着腌火腿、咖啡、马德拉酒那种氧化感,中段发酵李子酱和顶级烟草雪莉的深邃,肉感十足。收尾焦油和皮革,硫磺臭一闪而过,整体就像从无过滤嘴香烟里嘬烟丝,余韵老长。😋👍

Just had a dram that hit me with foul sulphury notes at first, then mellowed into cured ham and a whiff of pipe tobacco. 😊 The palate went quite peppery, with touches of beef bouillon and a hint of Madeira‑like old white Bordeaux. A splash of water opened up marmalade, chocolate and a leathery finish that lingered long, like sucking bits of tobacco from an untipped cigarette. 🥃

It hits the palate like an amber glass full of warm marmalade and a touch of chocolate, then drops into an earthy, raw‑soil feel that’s oddly dry. There’s a long, lingering note of pipe tobacco and the smell of an old Pu‑erh tea steeped in a bit of soot, like sucking bits of untipped cigarette. A whisper of fermented plum sauce and peppery chutney slides in, followed by a savoury sherry‑like sting and a hint of Madeira‑style sweetness that reminds me of quince jelly on toast. The finish is very dry, almost rubbery, with a faint coffee edge and a stray sulphury hint that fades into a meaty, beef‑bouillon afterglow. 😊

这威士忌喝起来相当有味道,感觉就像在吸着没过滤的香烟 🕯️,那种浓郁的尼古丁味儿直接命中我的味蕾。 有种印度风味的辣酱味道,带有一丝甜味,但整体还是偏干的 😊。 让我想起以前在祖父的旧皮革烟盒里找到的干梅酱,酸甜交替。 颜色是美丽的琥珀色,黏稠度刚好 👍。 口味上,有种类似生肉的味道,和一丝腌肉、干酪的味道混合在一起。 然后是雪利酒的那种鲜美、肉类的味道,让我想起了牛肉汤的浓郁感 😋。 质地有一点皮革般的厚重感,带有一丝胡椒的辛辣味儿。 抽着旧烟斗的感觉也有,带有一丝柏油路的感觉 😅。 这种酒喝起来真的很过瘾,有点老普洱茶的醇厚感,混合着柑橘酱的味道。 总体感觉还是有一定厚重感,但不失柔滑的一面 👍。

Crikey, this one's proper complex. Starts with this heavy, almost meaty thing — like someone reduced a beef bouillon and stirred in a bit of English brown sauce. There's a definite earthy, raw earth side, mixed with something like pipe tobacco or sucking on an old cigarette filter. Then it shifts. Quite peppery upfront, with a bit of a rubbery or tarry note that actually hangs around nicely. After a few sips, I’m getting these sweeter, jammy hints — maybe quince jelly or a tangy marmalade. Oh, and there’s this Old Pu-erh tea vibe mixed with coffee and dark chocolate that’s really moreish. The finish is super long, leathery, and very dry, almost like old sherried fruit but with a sooty edge. Blimey, there’s even a bit of cured ham and peppered chutney in there somewhere! Adds a few drops of water and it just opens up even more. 🤔
