Tastes

Nose: Burnt sugar, cherry, berries, lychee, hint of banana candy, melon, oak, hint of coconut, vanilla, hay, hint of rubber, charred wood. Palate: Berries right up front, bitter coffee note, brown sugar, vanilla, Marsala wine, and cinnamon Overview: A fun and unique take on the Teeling grain, the Cabernet Sauvignon adds a nice touch tho a bit strong, it does hide the youth of the spirit a bit. Still sharp and single minded but fun to drink and enjoy.

The best Balvenie to date! The extra ABV help so much bringing the spice of bananas, pepper, oak, almonds, brown sugar, orange peel, and marmalade.

Very lively! Like sprite and scotch got together! Its hot, and doesnt hide its youth, but its fun and interesting!

This is what a new distillery is supposed to do! Beautifully done, the peat is bery subdued and only shows it head after sitting out for a while. But the dark fruit is flying at you on the nose and palate. Definitely need another pour to get better tasting notes! But great impressions on first dram.

Classic Glenfiddich, but s nicer spice than the 12 and a but more forward than the 15. Classic green apples and vanilla with strong oaky presence.

Silky, oily, nose starts with crisp green apples, old grandpas leather chair in a great way.

Sweet crisp green apple, light pineapple, and some mango. The high abv keeps the party moving and has a long finish. Nose is muted but really comes to life on the palate. A beautiful and fun sister whisky to the original! Whike i miss the sherry, the crisp and powerful green apple and ex bourbon character and beautiful!

Wow, 30 year Bunna! What an experience! The years in the barrel brought out a sulfur note that reminded me immediately of a volcano for some reason. The nose was pretty subdued, but it was so oily and mouth coating! Taste wise, i prefer the rest of the Bunna line, especially the 18. But this was definitely a unique and special experience.

Nose is citrusy and a bit grassy. Palate is far more my speed, with peach, and a lovely little spice.

An incredible mouth feel, and a beautiful sweetness. Musty, barely nose, with the classic Sherry notes on the palate, far more balanced and rounded then the 12 or the 12 CS.
