Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

very grassy and very porridgy, this one! It reminds me of several older indie Bunnahabhain that haven’t been too thrilling in my opinion, and that’s an understatement. I get quite some beer as well, fermenting grass, baker’s yeast… Well well well…

restaurant Palate

ha-ho, this is completely different! Nothing to do with the nose, this palate is all on juicy fruits, liqueurs and jams, with some liquorice and bubblegum for good measure. Nice touches of pineapple liqueur and honeydew

timer Finish

medium long, a tad more gingery. Cardamom and cranberries in the aftertaste – that works!
