Located near the village of Port Askaig, at the northern tip of the island of Islay, the Bunnahabhain distillery was founded in 1881 and has always used spring water from Margadale Spring, which is known for its purity. Unlike many Islay whiskies, Bunnahabhain's flagship products are known for their non-peated profile, although the distillery also produces lightly peated expressions, such as this one, specially designed for independent bottlers. Expressions aged in first-fill bourbon casks are rare and sought after for their unique aromatic profile.

Swell by Spirits is created in 2021 by Michael Barbaria. Its bottlings come from a meticulous selection of exceptional barrels in collaboration with each producer, to which it pays homage by succeeding in captivating the most discerning taste buds of enlightened amateurs. Its bottles, with a design just as original as the liquid they contain, make Swell de Spirits a key player on the independent scene.
