The last thing you want is to risk the embarrassment of ordering a bunny-ha-ban when you mean Bunnahabhain.

It’s true that for non-Scots speakers the names of some of our whiskies can be a bit of a mouthful. Thankfully the good folks from the online pronunciation dictionary, Forvo, are here to help!

Throughout our site, you can highlight a word to hear it pronounced – try it with the whisky pronunciation guide below!
