Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

a fresh and malty start, with Bunnahabhain’s trademark nuttiness and lightness. Something distantly maritime (sea air), developing on earl grey tea, milk chocolate, cake, a little rubber and something discreetly meaty (ham). Goes on with a little nectar, pollen, maybe a little heather and hints of beer… ‘Nice’ and undemanding

restaurant Palate

malty and grainy, with, maybe, a little lack of body but it’s good whisky. Soft spices, violet sweets, chestnut honey, pastries… The balance is almost perfect, in fact, even if we’d sometimes like more oomph. A little restrained and too ‘peaceful’ but other than that it’s flawless and highly drinkable. Probably not a malt for hardcore whisky fans but I always sort of liked Bunnahabhain 12 and I still do. 82 points . Bunnahabhain 12 yo (43%, OB, 75cl, mid/end 1970’s)
