Thanks to settlers from Scotland and Ireland who brought their distilling knowledge to the colony, the heritage of Maryland rye dates back more than four centuries to the 1600s.

The latest culprit: Dunkin’ Spiked’s new Pumpkin Spice Iced Latte.

Whilst Islay is famous for its heavily peated malts (see Laphroaig, Ardbeg, Port Charlotte), Bunnahabhain’s main output is unpeated malt and has been for many years. With its notable use of sherry casks for maturation Bunnahabhain whisky is Islay’s answer to the Speyside ‘sherry bomb’.
