Talisker
18 year old
Taste note
-
Colour:
Amber
-
Nose:
Rich and fruity Victoria plums, greengages, perhaps dried orange peel with some butterscotch or rum toffee and a thread of smoke behind.
-
Palate:
Sweet in front, then more assertive, with a whiff of smoke. The overall effect is warming. The development is towards smoke, coal-tar, and toffee. Intense layers of fruitiness and peat.
-
Finish:
Medium length and chilli 'catch' in the finish.
