Bunnahabhain Mòine
Country: Scotland
Region: Islay
Type: Single Malt
Bottler: Distiller
ABV: 46.3%
Score: 91 Points
Mòine is the term Bunnahabhain uses to describe its peatier whiskies, as opposed to the standard range of Bunnahabhains that are barely peated at best. This no-age-statement Islay single malt has a nose full of toasted vanilla, banana, coconut, brown sugar, and a hint of briny wet sand. The taste starts off with a green apple tartness followed by a peaty smokiness with touches of smoked salmon, burnt leaves, and dark chocolate. The finish is medicinal and smoky with a hint of spices. (March, 2020)
