History

The Bunnahabhain is one of the milder single malt Islay whiskies available and its taste varies greatly from other spirits to be found on the island of Islay, off the west coast of Scotland.

Initially the distillery was owned by the Islay Distillery Company, but in 1887 it was taken over by the Highland Distilleries Company.[2] The earliest records of the use of electricity on Islay are from 1894 when the Bunnahabhain Distillery was provided with electric light.[3]

Originally the distillery was supplied by ship, but in 1960 a road was built to the distillery. The last delivery by ship was in 1993.[4] The distillery closed in 1981 but was reopened in 1984 when demand picked up.[5] In 2003 it was acquired by Burn Stewart which merged with Distell in 2014[6] and is one of nine active distilleries on the island.

The name Bunnahabhain is an anglicisation of Bun na h-Abhainne, Scottish Gaelic for Mouth of the River.[7][8]
