Bunnahabhain Bn4 - Elements of Islay
Review by Elements of Islay
- Nose
Green apples covered in crunchy toffee – water brings out smoky notes.
- Palate
Punchy, with more of the green apple from the nose as well as sweet pineapple and zesty lime. Water reveals more complexity, intensifying the fruit and creating a blanket of soft smoke.
- Finish
Long and zesty, with green apple and lime.
- Note
-
A marriage of whiskies from two vintages, all matured in American oak, Bn4 carefully balances the series’ soft smoke against tropical and orchard fruit, creating a sweet-and-sour dram that really sings with a drop of water.
