    I've been lucky enough to own multiple bottles of this beauty so I tend to drink this one at will! But I gloat. Let's talk about the nose, shall we? The powerful aromas makes me feel like a captain on a… read more

    A few drams thanks to ryan and ygtbsm94. Lots of spiced apple pie with muted bacon and smoke. Thicker palate with some residual sweetness not present in a lot of Islay Scotches. Decently spicy finish with… read more

    Talk about "bang for the buck" whiskey's and it doesn't really get much better than this. Widely available around 30 of your euros if you shop around a little this is one of my all-time favourites and for… read more

    If you've read my earlier reviews, you'd have noticed I've worked my way through the Talisker 3-pack. Previous reviews were the Distiller's Edition and the 10 Year Old. Now - my favourite. A coppery … read more

    Nose: Sharp. Lots of oloroso sherry here. Floral notes--bordering on perfume-y. Relatively subtle peat. Orange rind and a bit of a mineral note... slate? Taste: Thick and sweet. Really measured arrival… read more

    Some time ago I posted a review of the Distiller's Edition (which was part of a Talisker 3-Pack I acquired). Now it's time for the ubiquitous Talisker 10. A shimmering light golden honey colour. Nose … read more
