No... this is not what a Bunnahabhain is supposed to be...

Nose: bit briny, young spirit-like, malty, baked bread and a whim of fried potatoes with onions and bacon

Taste: Alcoholic burn, more intense than the ABV% would suggest, Spirity, bit harch, reminds me a bit of Grappa

Finish: none so what ever.

In short: the name is more complex than the body

Wow, I really wanted to write a positive review after those negative ones below. But the more attention I gave this, the worse I think it is. The IB's and 2017/2018 Feis Ile bottlings are a great lot better, luckily, IMHO.

Nose

82 82

Not quite Bunna-like. Fudge, vanilla, some ammonia chloride, musty oak wood, all covered in annoyingly present sulfur,

Taste

78 78

Watery, then sherry notes, some fudge and vanilla sticks, then sulfur and then quite peppery,

Finish

65 65

Short, bitter in the end, slightly drying. Sulfur, fudge and some sherry notes die quickly on the tongue and on the side of the tongue. Not pleasant.

why 81P and not 80 P?
Dectel said
"that was the cutter chugging past"
yes that was it

Nose

Smells like Buna / Sherrymaritim
smoky like at the harbor
salt licorice
caramelized ivy leaves
Rum from the bottle
raisins
Salmiak moderately - the eucalyptus

Taste

cool & smooth at the start
Nougat chocolate on the tip of the tongue, then smoky warm, filling the mouth, sweet cider apples, herbs on the tongue, light alcohol note
gets biterier and a bit spicy if it's longer in the mouth

Finish

Rum, cider apples, and bitter apple peels remain on the palate
slightly smoky sugar in the throat

On the nose, it's malty, full of cereals (hay in August !!), and vanilla, and scent of dried fruits!
On the palate, vanilla, almost pastry, dried flowers, dry emblems and a spicy sweetness, return of light salty smoke.
In the finish, simple but tenacious, not very strong, but monolithic and durable on the dry fruit, and a little cocoa.

A surprising dram, not peaty, but traces of dry smoke, rather scattered fruit aromas, towards blackcurrant, vanilla that regulates everything!
a NAS supposed to replace the 12?
simple, but in my strings!

Nose

malt, macerated fruit, spicy, velvety, nuts back.

Taste

spicy, malt, sherry with mold and slightly cooked fruits, some wood and salt iodine.
woody, kernel, crushed almond and still waxy on the nut!

Finish

frank, short to medium on the same scents !!

Drunk so on the TV side, I found the quite useful, now with full attention rather disappointing and compared to the Ancl Cladach much better. Nose weak, leaving weak, mouth not convincing, too much spicy and bitter, except for the hint of salt liquorice no "pro" to find. I do not have to pay for 40 €.

Nose

thin or rather restrained - raisins, caramel, nut, malt, maybe a touch of sea air, somehow unspanned, makes little desire ... after a while actually some Salzlakritze and eucalyptus - I like that, but way too thin, because I have the Sucking in whisky almost with your nose

Taste

officially "soft and creamy" - well, it bites quite a bit, pepper, salt, nougat, a bit woody-bitter, burnt bread ... if it stays in the mouth for a long time, it is a little creamier, toffee, raisins, but also more bitter

Finish

rather short nougat, longer bitter and spicy

Nose

sweet, with a little sherry. Slightly maritime with seaweed, herbs and licorice

Taste

slight bitterness with chocolate. Salt with licorice. All in all a bit too shallow.

Finish

Pepper, here comes the alcohol.

2 nd review after 7 months. No change in rating.

Nose

Good sherry nose, Vanilla, caramel, nuts and a maritime touch. Loads of malt.

Taste

83 83

Light creamy, honey and sherry sweet with a good amount of spiciness. Too salty near the end when drying out.

Finish

81 81

Short finish, dry wood and some salt
