Tasting Notes

Colour

pale straw

air Nose

an interesting leathery and gherkiny (?) profile, I can indeed imagine 'seaweed on the rocks', in a way. We're far from Bunnahabhain's usual honeyed and brioche-y (that'll do, S.) style. A lot of apple peelings and, indeed, seaweed, then some rainwater, a little soot and even whiffs of mud/clay. Some brine too, but very little smoke

restaurant Palate

excellent. It's quite peaty in fact, but I don't think Bunnahabain were using peated malt back in 1991. An ex-peater hogshead? Also apples, green tea, a little cardamom, limejuice... In short, a very sharp and zesty Bunnahabhain. It's very much to my liking

timer Finish

long, sharp, wonderfully bitter
