Talisker 18 YO 700ml

With wonderful sweetness and warmth, intertwined with just a thread of smoke, Talisker 18 Year Old is an award-winning whisky that is rich and soft but still assertive. Named the Best Single Malt Whisky in the World 2007 at the World Whiskies Awards, Talisker 18 Year Old delivers fruit which cascades into never-ending peat, offering a new dimension to discover.

Nose: Rich and fruity Victoria plums, greengages, perhaps dried orange peel with some butterscotch or rum toffee and a thread of smoke behind.

Taste: 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. Medium length and chilli “catch” in the finish.
