Member Ratings and Notes

Adam

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+

Chris

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.

Andy

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

Cough syrupy and little bitter. Decent mouthfeel

Sku

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.
