Bunnahabhain Toiteach A Dhà

The nose is an excellent combination of peat smoke, a sherry note, and oak. The palate is smokey, oakey, and has hints of vanilla sweetness and sherry/dried fruit with a nice little black pepper spice on the finish. Very enjoyable.

Color: Light, soft amber. Nose: Mellow dried fruits with crushed black pepper and campfire smoke. Sherry finish really pops here. Palate: Mild salinity arrives with heady coastal peat. Sherry notes are more muted, but a pleasant raisin sweetness remains. Finish: Long and loaded. Syrupy, spicy, and savory. The star of the show. Diluted: Nose sees distinct cinnamon emerge along with fresh floral notes. Palate is honeyed but loses a little body, while the finish finds a little black fireplace soot but otherwise shortens. (If you add water, only add a dash.)

A lovely soft peated expression from bunna, really balanced. And loads of seasalt in the nose and palate! The peat is nice and gentle, making it a pleasant and lovely. The finish is smooth, clean, and medium length.
