Bunnahabhain 16 1988-2004 Scott's Selection / 53.8% ABV Nose - Bright honeyed apples, light salt, grilled pineapple, peach (w/ water) Adds a hint of cracked black pepper to the nose Taste - Rich, oily, hint of brine, ripe peaches & nectarines, dried apricots, candied ginger, candied nuts (w/ water) not as rich, lightly more drying, but otherwise same flavors Finish - Sweet tinned peaches, light metallic notes, hint of salt, light nut skin bitterness (w/ water) Metallic vibe greatly reduced, less bitter Score - 92/100 Final Thoughts - I really enjoyed this one, but maybe I'm a bit biased with it being Bunnahabhain. If I were to give this a SMWS name, it'd be "tinned dried peaches in syrup" because I think this summarizes it quite well. It's got a nice ripe stone fruit vibe I really like and it has this really nice mix of fresh and dried sweetness to it. A tiny bit of water hurts the nose a bit, but I think it really helps get rid of that metallic note I get, which I find a bit distracting, but nostalgic at the same time. Would I drink it if offered? - Yes Would I specifically order it? - Yes Would I buy a bottle? - Maybe NOTE - All reviews are done without factoring in price.
