    Excellent review. I've never tried this one but I've had my eye on it as with several Bunnahabhain expressions. They recently got rid of their 100% ex-bourbon peated expression. It's quite a crowded field at this price with some real winners and that's probably why I haven't bought it. I'm sure it's perfectly decent though.

    I kind of liked this expression. I got most of your notes. As an Islay whisky lover, this is something I'd buy (my first taste was a gift bottle). I like this better than the 12yo.

    Is it sacrilegious to mix this 50/50 with Ardbeg 10. Same ABV and to be honest somehow a very complementary setup. I have been finding Toiteach A Dha kind of bitter on the finish and a bit unbalanced whereas Ardbeg 10 has a sweeter and more balanced profile. I am still trying to figure out if Ardbeg is dominating but at this point I am really enjoying the fusion experience.

    • @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies
      @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Blend away! I like to blend 50/50 with Supernova and Corryvreckan. I call it the "Ultimate Dram": th-cam.com/video/acPuLG6cfvg/w-d-xo.html

    Greetings Erik!
    What you can advice if i wanna get my first Bunna bottle? I like Laphroaig 10 (early releases), Ardbeg 10, Port Charlotte 10 (bought because of your review!). What from Bunnahabhain will be most interesting?

    This is a fantastic whisky, i agree it could need a bit in the finish, but in my opinion its worth the price, at least to experience this side of bunnahabhain. Its in my top 30 so far.

    Intresting review since I recently been eyeballing Toiteach a Dhà, the "standard" Moine, (wich isn't the oloroso version) and Stiùireadair
    What are your thoughts about the standard Moine compared to Toiteach a Dhà and Stiùireadair taste wise, points and bang for the buck?
    I've thought about the 12yo too. Mabe someday.
    The 18yo and up to 44yo and a limited edition from 1980 are soooo expensive.
    Moine coming in at $46 USD and
    Stiùireadair is $54 USD
    Toiteach a Dhà is $58 USD.
    Thank you Erik!

    • @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies
      @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Anything from Bunnhabhain with "Moine" in the title is a definite "buy", especially if it is sherry cask finished.

    Great review I laughed so hard at the intro. Bunnabablain 12 will be my 3rd peated whiskey to try. My first was Connemara which I liked. My love is Ardbeg An Oa. Will the bunnabablain 12 be on the same flavor profile. It will be here in 2 weeks. I got it for $55 tax included @ total wine and more. I think I got a good deal😄

  • @Metetron
    @Metetron 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I am eyeing this one for my next batch. My limited experience with peated whiskies has been hit-or-miss so far - I did not like Laphroaig 10 at all, but I liked the PX thanks to its sherriness, so I am interesting in giving more peated/smokey sherried whiskies a try. Should I try this or jump straight to the Eirigh na Greine which would no doubt be safer as my first Bunnahabhain?

    • @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies
      @ErikWaitWhiskyStudies  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I am a big fan of Bunnahabhain but I have not ahd the Eirigh na Greine. In fact, I've not seen it in the USA.Have you tried Ardbeg An Oa? It is also PX cask finished.

      @@ErikWaitWhiskyStudies i haven't. Waiting for a chance to mooch/sample both Ardbeg and Lagavulin. Might be that I end up adjusting my order to have more rums in which case the Bunna will have to go, as it is the most uncertain of the lot...

      Any Bunnahabhain with the word “Moine” in the name, which is Gaelic for “Peated.” Especially if it’s a sherry cask.

    You know what? i wonder if you tasted this scotch, right after opening it? i've found with the Bunnahaabhain 12 and with this Toiteach a Dha, it needs some oxygen. i think the tar taste melts away with a bit of age and oxygen. IMHO.
