If the movie industry has proven anything (apart from Tom Hanks being a treasure), it's that people love a good sequel. Well, that idea is coming over to the whisky world - this right here is Bunnahabhain's Toiteach a Dhà, which means "Smoky Two" in Gaelic. It's the sequel to their popular peaty treat Bunnahabhain Toiteach, featuring a much more up-front core of sherried spice shining out between the smoky plumes.
Roasted peanuts, cinnamon and red chilli flakes, blackcurrant and Port.
Sea salt and kippers, dark chocolate, sultanas, a touch of cantaloupe.
Barley, dry smoke and pepper.
Nose: smoke, salty-fresh, tropical fruits Palate: smoky and spicy, smooth with salt and herbs Finish: seaside (and maybe a little bit fishy), dark chocolate, oak, very dry and long All in All: very good Islay, deep and complex. He smells like the Ardbeg Uigeadail
Initial hit of sherry and oranges with slight hint of oak.No pronouned astringency but slight dryness and pepper on the tongue with gentle hint of smoke.Warming with further notes of sherry and oranges in the finish.A lovely smooth whisky .
Love it best painkiller in the world beautiful must drink undiluted to appreciate the flavour
One of their best!
Lol Octomore is more then 2x the price, why do you even compare? Ahh.. now I actually see that the first coment also refered to octomore.. I will post this comment anyway and I will buy the whiskey, if I don't come back for a review I'm probably still drunk.
