Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

ah yes, it's one of these Bunnahabhains that are much grassier, and much less honeyed and nutty than most others, especially the OBs. Yet, this is quite floral and fruity, with peaches and wild flowers (and maybe peonies and even roses) as well as cider apples and whiffs of humus. Also a little fresh butter and then tonic water. Nice nose, rather elegant

restaurant Palate

very grassy and quite oaky at first sips, very vegetal. Apple peeling. It's quite raw in fact, rawer than on the nose. Also orange rinds and quite some ginger. Lemon drops

timer Finish

medium long, with more liquorice wood and tea tannins. A little earthy in the aftertaste
