Bunnahabhain reviews

My first review...this was my first and remains a favoritemof mine. Not too adventurous, but not too blabd, for me it falls right innthe sweet spot.

Cruach-Mhòna is Gaelic for ‘peatstack’, so I suppose this is going to be a heavily peated Bunna. It comes in 1 liter bottles for travel retail. I tried it for the first time in 2011, but this is a bot…

This Limited Release from Bunnahabhain was distilled on the 24th March 2003 and bottled on 21st June 2017, making it a 14 year old. It matured on 2nd fill sherry casks and was then finished for 3 (!)…
