Nose of caramel, and rather farty -- fartiness does not always designate a bad thing... some farts are great!  And that's the case with Bunna 18.  The medium-bodied and smooth palate is caramel, caramel, caramel.  Yum!  B/B+

N: A very raw sherry in the figgy style.
P: Dry powder sherry, some lurking fruit and burnt notes.
F: Peanuts!  Wow, really long and nutty aftertaste.  Quite interesting.

Boo! I'm not generally a fan of Bunnahabhain, so take this for what it's worth, but this only salvages a C+ because I followed it with the 25 which was worse.

 Note:  This is from a video note during a public tasting.

 

Cough syrupy and little bitter.  Decent mouthfeel

Nose:  Medium sherry, grape juice, some sulphur.

Palate:  Lightly sulphured sherry, dark chocolate, candied lemons.

Finish:   Sulphur fumes and acidic chocolate notes.

 

A nice sherried malt with a moderate sulphur note.
