- Description
- Bunnahabhain's Bn2 defies the distillery's reputation for minimal peat with a smoky, complex profile that demonstrates the range possible from this Islay source. The oily texture and high strength—56.1%—deliver concentrated smoke, brine, and subtle fruit alongside an unexpected depth. Perfect for those seeking an alternative Islay expression that moves beyond the distillery's signature unpeated style.
