Bunnahabhain 12 Year

Natural golden color, viscous, not chill filtered. Nose of this whisky is not powerful, but I would not call it delicate either. It’s somewhat sulfury, with aromas of bread, cabbage, eggs, with some black pepper on the back. After a few minutes, notes of oak and vanilla, but not very powerful. Palate is surprisingly fruity, with a sweet character, some raisins and butterscotch, and a more powerful vanilla and oak. Finish is medium, with more fruit and oak notes, finishing with a slight bitterness and a hint of figs. A few drops of water in this 46.3% ABV whisky make it a bit more fruity and round, with a sweeter finish. Overall, not a bad dram, but in my opinion lacks complexity, especially on the nose.
