Дымный, торфяной и солёно-морской виски с хересными нотами, который в целом считают удачным по соотношению цена-качество, хотя часть отзывов отмечает молодость, простоту и спорный финиш.
развернуть подробно
В большинстве отзывов виски описывают как дымный, торфяной и солёно-морской, с пеплом, копчёным мясом, орехами, специями и влиянием хересных бочек — сухофруктами, красными ягодами, шоколадом, ванилью и карамелью. Отмечают также ноты йода, морского воздуха, цитрусов, минеральности и камфоры/ментола. По характеру он мягче и менее резкий, чем Laphroaig или Ardbeg, но при этом «неотёсанный» и местами односторонний, с доминирующим пеплом. Мнения о финише расходятся: от короткого и простого до длинного, тёплого и пряного, но чаще его называют средним или средне-длинным, с дымом, пеплом, хересом и йодом.
Критика касается молодости, водянистости, одномерности дыма, горьковатого и сухого финиша, а также цены и ценности: часть считает его хуже Ardbeg 10, Caol Ila 12, Kilchoman Sanaig или Lagavulin 16, а хересные ноты — недостаточными; упоминаются и лёгкие металлические ноты при долгом употреблении. Есть сдержанные мнения — «неплохо, но не исключительно», предпочтение 12-летнего, указание, что у Bunnahabhain есть лучшие Moine, и что херес трудно найти из-за доминирующего торфа. В то же время виски в целом оценивают как удачное по соотношению цена-качество, сбалансированное и достойное покупки, хотя не исключительное.

S 8 Quite nice, a better alternative for Stiùireadair. This taste more natural, better balance and consistency, or perhaps it’s the peat pulling the strings for me. Great value at the £30ish range. Bunna can do peat, and they can handle it well.

On the nose, honey, light fruits, and gentle ashy wood smoke. On the palate, light fruits and a hint of citrus – overlaid with strong, ashy smoke and a subtle honey sweetness in the background. Towards the finish, the smoke becomes bitter, and an alcoholic sharpness lingers longest. This whisky is okay, but it doesn't really convince me – like all the NAS bottlings from Bunnahabhain I've tried so far. It seems a bit watery, the smoke is too one-dimensional for my taste (but I'm generally not a fan of smoky Bunnahabhains), and overall the whisky is rather young, boisterous, and peppery. The dry and bitter finish doesn't win it any points either.
beautiful sweet peat smoke, leather?, chocolate, ripe fruits
Sherry with peat smoke and then a campfire with a nutty and plum - I think this Bunna is great!

| Нос | 90 | light campfire smoke and peat smoke (felt to me maybe 10-15 ppm and present in the nose; according to "schubiweine.ch: mixture of 90% 40 ppm peat malt and 10% barley malted barley"); the sherry with a distinctive nut aroma and some oak flavor is dominant here. Behind it comes a scent of seaweed mixed with a salt breeze from the spray and a little bit of citrus freshness, which for me is more orange. Very nice! |
| Вкус | 86 | First the nut aroma (almonds and hazelnuts) from the sherry arrives gently in the mouth, then comes a good portion of peppery seasoning with a (peat) smoke pushed behind. Then it turns into a chocolate note - tendency towards dark chocolate. The sherry aroma with raisins (weaker) and plum (stronger) remains with the smoke for a long time. |
| Финиш | 85 | medium to long. Sherry and smoke (now more campfire character) remain, as well as a light spice and some oak. Overall warming the throat. |

Thick smoke, sticky peat. Earth, tar, soot. Behind it all, the sherry influence becomes discreet. Morello cherries, blackberries. Campfire, grilling bacon. Damp tree bark. Little by little, the sherry becomes more insistent, gourmand, almost syrupy. Blackcurrant. Caramel and cranberry on the palate, apricot compote, but the spices rise very quickly: pepper and cumin, cherries, olives, quite a strong, very long finish: charcoal, mossy earth, wood chips, elderberry, gravel. A complete success. This is the one to buy of all the peaty versions of Bunnahabhain. https://ilikesky2020.blogspot.com/2020/05/bunnahabhain-toiteach-dha.html

nose: dry and gripping peat, a little iodized, lemon, seaweed at high tide, salt arriving, a little fruit on citrus mouth: the alcohol fire is quite young, then a pleasant sensation of smoke near the fire, a little fruit on the cooked tangerine, a little mold in return, peppery spices, the malt returns a little toasted, seaweed still in a little parched package. Final: fairly short, smoky, dry wood, fruit a little macerated at last. simple, missing a bit of final.
Excellent value for money, from a distillery I'm not often too keen on. A nice mix of sweet and smoke.

A lovely Mòine variant of Bunnahabhain's single malt. This selection from a combination of Ex-Bourbon and Sherry casks results in delicate sherry sweetness, fruity citrus flavours and pleasant smokiness with subtle coastal aromas and warming spices. A full-bodied single malt with a long finish. Excellent value for money, too. https://www.whisky-connaisseur.de/2018/06/21/bunnahabhain-toiteach-a-dh%C3%A0-2018/

This Bunnahabhain Toiteach a Dhà is the sequel to the original Toiteach. Made with Moine peat barley, this whisky is aged in old bourbon and sherry barrels. This Bunnahabhain is very much extremely delicate. The first nose is very pleasant, on orange zest. The rest is very complex, mixing a smoky and salty scent that lets out notes of hay, sherry and vanilla. Although not a tsunami, this nose is a harmonious breeze. On the palate, the attack is herbaceous, then on peat smoke. The mid-palate is spicy (pepper), woody (old oak), and we sip notes of fresh mint, hazelnut, orange and dark chocolate. It is both tender and delicious, it is fluid and more than pleasant to drink. The finish gives me a nice minerality, we find the salinity characteristic of Bunnahabhain. The peat is manifested by notes of earth and barbecue smoke. A hint of custard sublimely concludes the tasting. This Bunnahabhain is a beautiful mellow distillate, of a rather disconcerting complexity which is the fruit of a well integrated peat and of the dual aging in sherry and bourbon barrels, which gives it a more than interesting aromatic profile.

For this amount of money. I can't complain. It needs some time to open up but great. Nose: ashy,a hint of sherry and the typical Nordic Seaish nose. Taste: is a little watery but still sweet and well balanced. Pea is what I get here as well. better than most of the other NAS ones by Bunnahabhain.
Great whisky - smoke and sugar in the nose with a great, rather dry mouth feeling - flavours are rich: honey, vanilla, tobacco and linseed. Great finish with a gentle tingling. Beautiful product!

A well-composed price-performance hit. However, this bottling is not suitable for everyone. It only slightly matches my taste profile. I prefer a more elegant smoke and I have to get used to the fact that it is so sweet on the palate. Ardbeg and Ledaig lovers will certainly particularly appreciate the Toiteach A Dhà. Addendum: As the level decreases, it gets better and better, and above all more harmonious.

| Нос | 87 | Great Bunna Sherry! The typical Bunnahabhain aromas, although quite subtle, are beautifully preserved and paired with fully ripe fruit. A beach in drizzle with salty sea spray and seaweed on the shore. A little further along the dunes, a slowly dying beechwood fire with vanilla pods in the embers. Alongside it, rich fruit of cherry, raspberry, and a hint of citrus. In the background are traces of herbs, eucalyptus oil, and a subtle acidity. |
| Вкус | 85 | It starts off very sweet with phenol, earth, citrus, orange, and vanilla. Then the familiar aromas of a Bunna 12 emerge. Then a strong sherry touch. A lot of interplay, with many more flavors present but not immediately tangible. Overall, very tasty! |

An unusual but good malt! [Color] amber;
86 points on average? Why on earth would you buy this if you can buy an Ardbeg 10, Caol Ila 12 or even a 5 y old Kilchoman Sanaig for the same money? This industry is getting mad. Rubbish NAS whisky for 40 Pounds. By the way I have blended the Arran 12 Master II with this one and on both sites it became a better whisky. So if you buy 2 not so good whisky, just blend it. Or if you have a bad whisky, blend it with a good one.
On the nose : medicinal haze (mint, camphor, ash), salty and oily smoke. Tiny bit of sweet notes in the distance : vanilla, riped red fruits. With time more nutty notes. Taste : Ok that's a lot of ashes. Camphor again which gives a nice greasy feeling but the fresher mint notes are still to be found. Powerful and one-sided Finish : Medium to long. Still a lot of ashes, spices. Camphor lingers on. I liked the first Toiteach and expected a close profile. It is not. This one is way more on cold ashes and has no sweet aspect whatsoever . Actually I have never tasted a profile that ash-oriented before. Not to my liking but still feels nicely done. 6/10

| Нос | 88 | A pleasantly restrained smoky note that draws with a touch of dried apricots, peaches and raisins in the nose. Sherry aromas follow after a while, as do caramel and honey. Spicy wood, a little tree resin and pepper complete the picture. |
| Вкус | 87 | Cool peat smoke, more intense on the tongue than in the nose. Dry from the beginning. Sherry aromas, some Kellermoder and an impression of damp wood give it depth. Cloves, nutmeg and pepper crowd in. Also a little licorice and menthol resonate. Nougat chocolate, freshly brewed coffee, leather. |

| Нос | 88 | a well integrated combination of sherry and smokey notes are the first things you notice. Behind that, there's a world of flavours opening up: woody, vanilla, herbal (sage) and a little minerally - irony notes. An extra few minutes in and the nose opens up even further with berries and red grapes. Simply wonderfull: so much to explore and to discover without ever being overwhelming or overly busy. A class act! |

| Финиш | 86 | Long and a bit sharp initially. Peat and smoke lead the way with a prominent ashy note towards a more gentle, softer, fruity touch. Just as the finish fades out, it turns around once more with a subtle smokey touch that hangs around. |
What a charming little youngster this Bunny! If you're a cheapskate on a budget like yours truly, you might find it a good bfyb. Excuse the ambassador-y musings. Nose: the peat smoke is not the most "Islay", but here that isn't a lapse for me. We're getting walnuts, pecans, caramel and an array of other pastry notes. It seems some fortunate sherry cask got involved. Taste: In one word? Fat. Featuring sweet, bitter and salty notes in that order. So, ballanced, let's say. More maritime than the nose. Raw cocoa beans could sum it up. Finish: Long, simple, but profound. Wet ropes, coffee, earthy notes, dry sootiness.

A bottle of whisky purchased out of personal curiosity. I was so curious to know what Bunnahabhain with peat would taste like, so I bought this bottle for 50% more than 12yo and came back to try it. After trying it, it didn't disappoint me though, But I still prefer 12yo's perfect balance of aroma and sherry & bourbon barrels. (A moment of silence for my lost money...) The smoky taste of peat is much like Ledaig 10, more oceanic than iodine. But it also has the influence of ex-sherry casks, so it's more fruity, which is very flattering. Overall, it is a good choice for a bottle of peat whisky, but unfortunately, the price is slightly higher for a 10-year-old NAS. The taste score is 87 and the price doesn't affect the score.
It is very nice, although for the price I am not sure I would buy it again. People mention Ledaig - I have to try it yet, but if Ledaig is better, then it wins price wise.

Quite brash and a bit raw, but it does pack a flavorful punch, too. Those Oloroso casks added some dark fruit and spice, but we also found plenty of light fruits, as well as a bit of that seaside character we sometimes get in Islay whiskies: briny, a bit medicinal. A solid peaty whisky from Bunnahabhain, if a bit unpolished. Value is okay - maybe a bit less than some other Bunnahabhain bottlings like the classic 12 Year version. Not a bad value, but you can get a bit more complexity for your money with other peaty Islay whiskies.
This is not bad. But any day of the week I would rather go for Kilchoman Sanaig (and/or Lagavulin 16, Ardbeg Uigeadail). I find the sherry notes... Lacking.
no club looks gentle and older that could do more but the menthol note kills a lot

This malt successfully conceals its youth behind its robust smokiness and intense berry-fruity sherry influence. Only after prolonged sipping and in the aftertaste do slightly metallic tendencies emerge, but these are not truly bothersome. A good, young peated whisky with strong cask aromas that makes a bold statement rather than playing it safe.

Better than all the other NAS whiskies that Bunna has released the last couple of years, at least the ones I know of.
He is beautiful elegant, has no special own notes for a Bunna, but it is very silky and yet full in the mouth.
22, 23, 23, 22 Very pushy and rude, powerful. Good balance, long and enveloping aftertaste
The first approach awakens associations of paprika chips in the nose. These are then replaced by mineral smoke, mild dried fruit and spicy-sour meat broth. Overall, it presents itself relatively restrained in aroma. In the mouth it is round and almost oily with the meaty associations from the nose. In the finish, a torrent of cold ash rolls over the tongue, which lasts a relatively long time but is increasingly accompanied by chocolate and dried fruit. Finally, a dry mineral note remains on the palate. Length: 7/10 Overall, a successful, varied Bunna, which apparently has not only seen very young barrels. Rating: B+
One of the most maritime drams I've ever had.

A heavily peated Bunna, built up from contrasts. Not as simple as the smoky nose and the first taste may suggest, light in body full of earthy peat notes. Even if not predominant, smoke and even tar are clearly recognized, just before some slight sherry flavours enter the scene, resulting in a complex palate and persistent aftertaste. Good value for the money and very interesting (and strong) declination of a balance between smoke and slightly sweet cask flavours.
Very young, but not offensively so - the pros at Bruichladdich have at least taken the rough edges off. But it hasn’t had time - active enough casks - to develop a lot of character. I really like this style. If only they could find it in their hearts to drop in a few more older or first fill casks, this could be a winner! As it stands, I will forget about this once the 20cl bottle is empty. There are stunning options on the market for the money. I had this followed by the Ledaig 10 with a friend who isn’t massively into whisky but enjoys his peated dram now and then. When he got to the Ledaig, my friend immediately said it was so much nicer than the Bunna. People can tell!

| Нос | 85 | Not spiky, no rough edges, but evidently very youthful. Completely transparent. Smells like a mix of lots of refill with a single sherry cask dropped into the mix so that it doesn’t bore you to death. New make spirit with herbal peat, around the edges of that a slither of sweetness with strawberries and cranberries. Water brings out lemons, something of tropical fruits and a hint of leather. |
| Вкус | 84 | OK texture, not light but no remarkable viscosity either - thank god they don’t chill-filter this stuff. Pleasantly sour and dry, then a bitterness in the development. Wood-smoke, bitter thyme and coriander, lemon peel. Again hints of tropical fruit and a little vanilla. |
| Финиш | 84 | Medium, but short for a peater. With quite a nice complex of citruses and herbal peat. |
Not bad, but not exceptional either. Bunna has better Moine bottlings.

An excellent, really convincing Bunnahabhain! Great smoke character, very diverse!

Good value, but personally, and although very differently, I like the 12 year old a lot more. Nevertheless a great whisky!

Rokerig tot baby olie achtig in de neus. Zachte, rond tot olie.
One of those bottles that is easy to drink, but perhaps a little middle of the road. Inexpensive so worth trying.

| Нос | 84 | There is an obvious hit of peat on the nose - veering more towards claggy, than smoky. Preserved fruits sit behind it. |
| Вкус | 84 | The texture in the mouth is pleasant, if a little on the thin side. The taste opens with preserved fruit, a saline note - the peat is quite delicate on the palate. Very quaffable, but a little unexciting. |
| Финиш | 83 | Medium finish with a slightly hollow finish that seems to tail off. A little too polite on the finish. |
Very lovely. Good aftertaste.
12-06-2018: I found it rather hard to find the sherry; the peat is pushing the sherry far away. 19-11-2021

| Нос | 86 | light smoke. Chocolate, liquorice and dried fruits. Light sherry. |
| Вкус | 86 | Less smoke than in the nose. Nice sweetness, with sherry and dried fruit again. |
| Финиш | 86 | Pleasant smoke with dark fruits. Overall, medium. Light bacon notes. |
Unusual but very interesting nose - the mouthfeel falls off and can not keep up.
нос · вкус · финиш
| Нос | 85 | Unusual smoke (frankincense), cooling nose - menthol, minty and citrus fresh, licorice, barely honey sweet, you have to look for the few Sherryoten. |
| Вкус | 82 | Initially closed and not very expressive, cool. Light sweetness and smoke develop, caramel, hints of honey. |
| Финиш | 81 | Medium. At first mild and sweet, the tannins soon take over. Dry smoke on the tongue to the end. |
