Tasting Notes
Colour
pale straw
air Nose
lovely, typical and slightly soft old Bunnahabhain. Which is to say, lots of green fruits, fresh barley, a subtle waxiness, peanut brittle and waxy lemon rinds. I also find a slightly more pronounced medicinal streak than usual in these batches. Slightly herbal too - lovely nose
restaurant Palate
indeed, rather herbal now. Lots of herbal tea, bergamot, wintergreen and impressions of herbal cough syrup and old liqueurs - 1940s Drambuie anyone? Otherwise a few wee roots and earthier tones with a slight coastal edge
timer Finish
medium, ever so slightly sappy and minty with those same rootier and slightly vegetal notes
