BUNNAHABHAIN 布納哈本

Bunnahabhain 18 Year Old 70cl 46.3%

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Salted caramel leading to sticky toffee pudding sprinkled with nutmeg. With time a leathery quality emerges.

Palate: Dense, rich sherried notes perked up with a coastal saltiness. On a second wave roast chestnuts emerge and gentle wood spice.

Finish: Woodspice becomes mixed spice. The finish is warming and lengthy; salt and sherry towards the very end.

Overall: Bunnahabhain without chill-filtration is dense and oily and shows off its sherried credentials with ease.

The Bunnahabhain Distillery was founded in 1881 near Port Askaig on Islay. The village of Bunnahabhain was founded to house its workers. The distillery is owned by Distell.

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.

Bunnahbhain 布拿哈本產自艾雷島東北角的一個酒廠，蒸餾出另全球威士忌老饕與文學大師村上春樹如痴如醉的完美威士忌，百年來呼吸著大西洋的精華。如今，他再一次與世人 驕傲的分享，奪得Jim Murray這位當今威士忌界最具權威的酒評大師在2011年Whisky Bible中象徵最高榮譽的金牌獎 (Liquid Gold Awards)。

布納哈本是英商邦史都華集團下旗艦級的單一純麥原酒廠，全球行銷超過30多個國家，堅持最優良的釀造品質，讓布納哈本生產的威士忌持續在國際各重大 烈酒賽事獲獎無數。光在2010年就贏得「國際葡萄酒與烈酒獎」四面金牌、「舊金山烈酒獎」兩面金牌以及「全球威士忌賞~艾雷島冠軍」，肯定布納哈本堅持 蒸餾出''艾雷島最柔順的風味''的精神，而別於其他艾雷島酒廠傳統的重泥煤味。難怪村上春樹會說當賽爾金的<郭德堡變奏曲>清清流洩的良 宵，總想獨自靜靜喝杯飄著淡淡花香束的布納哈本。能夠獲得當代兩位大師Jim Murray與村上春樹高度的肯定，布納哈本堪稱實至名歸！
