Nose Ripe banana and melon, with a dash of pineapple syrup provide a sharp, fruit beginning. Aromas of lemon meringue and apricot yoghurt emerge among refined phenols and a drying oak edge. A big hunk of malt and must is present throughout.
Palate A waxy, resinous and slightly funky palate possesses lime peel, peat oils and hazelnuts, among a blend of saline and honey. Syrupy vanilla and barley water are lifted by juicy and mouthwatering spice in the mid-palate.
Finish Long and delicate, with a flash of more sharp fruity notes.
Overall A total gem from the typically distinctive Bunnahabhain.
