Bunnahabhain
12 Year Old Islay, 40% vol
Appearence:
Amber.
Aroma:
A delicate nose, misty; starts simple, becomes more (straight)
complex. The first impression is of drifting smoke, which passes,
to be replaced by clean, fruit-associated scents of nectarines,
rum-toft and oil of orange.
(dilute) With water, the fruit scents become estery and the smoke
takes on a burnt match note (or the sandpaper striker on a box
of matches). Faint hint of rubber.
Flavour:
The mouthfeel is delicate, drying and mouth-cooling. The overall
effect is refreshing. This comes from a distinct minty-toffee
flavour, with some smoke in the finish.
Development:
After time the smoke vanishes altogether and aromas reduce to
almost nothing.
