Within its total maturation period of more than twelve years, the unpeated Single Malt spent over five years in these wine casks. Here, first-fill means that the barriques previously held Madeira wine and were then used for whisky maturation for the first time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThompson Bros. releases this whisky as a small batch. Its character brings together soft red berries, the richness of walnut oil and a restrained salty note. It is bottled at 46.1% in a 0.7-litre bottle, without chill filtration or added colouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e On the nose, ripe red berries mingle with fresh citrus oils.

William Robertson founded the distillery in 1881 with brothers William and James Greenlees; production began in 1883. A settlement for employees and their families grew alongside the distillery. Its Gaelic name means river mouth. Water for production comes from the Margadale spring north of the distillery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThompson Bros. is run by Phil and Simon Thompson from Dornoch in the Scottish Highlands. Their work at the Dornoch Castle Hotel whisky bar led them to establish their own distillery, where whisky production began in 2017. While waiting for their own whisky to mature, they started releasing independent bottlings. Today, under the Thompson Bros. name, they source single-cask whiskies and small batches, mature them in their warehouse on Station Road and bottle them there. Every release in this bottling range is bottled without chill filtration or added colouring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFacts:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAge\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e12 years\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCountry of origin\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eScotland\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eProduct category\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eWhisky\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSmoke\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNot smoky\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003ePackaging\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eProduct type\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eSingle Malt\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eRegion\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eIslay\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eVolume\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e0.7 litres\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAlcohol content\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003e46.1%\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eMarket operator\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003ebringts Schweiz GmbH, Steinrain 18, 4112 Flüh\/CH\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBottler\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eThompson Bros.\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eColouring\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask strength or high alcohol content\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask size\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBarrique\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eChill filtration\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eAllergens\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eOrganic certification\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eNo\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBunnahabhain Distillery\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eBunnahabhain\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd\u003eCask type\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd\u003eFirst-fill Madeira barriques\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Bunnahabhain","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57636464689525,"sku":"123948","price":53.6,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0362\/8734\/8871\/files\/70362d1609b71a90dcde5e06399fba7a.webp?v=1791501047","url":"https:\/\/www.bringts.ch\/en\/products\/bunnahabhain-12-y-o-pride-of-islay-madeira-casks-thompson-bros","provider":"bringts.ch","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
