Talisker 10 year old single malt is a classic Island whisky from the Isle of Skye. Aged for a minimum of 10 years in American oak casks, this welcome member of Diageo's Classic Malts series has been recognised numerous times for its excellence. Immensely satisfying stuff, with whiffs of warm peat blending with coastal air, balanced by orchard fruit and juicy barley. A spectacular after dinner dram.
It was an Editor's Choice at Whisky Magazine, a gold medal winner at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition 2017 and was awarded 'Best Islands Single Malt' at the 2017 World Whiskies Awards.
A fresh and fragrant nose. Through thick, pungent smoke comes sweet pear and apple peels, with pinches of maritime salt from kippers, seaweed.
It's a bonfire of peat crackling with black pepper, with a touch of brine and dry barley. A welcome delivery of orchard fruit provides a delicate and beautiful balance.
In a long finish, bonfire embers toast malt and crystallise a sugary underlay.
It is truly one of the greats, unique in its balance of flavors. As if it is the ultimate marriage between islay smoke and spyside sweetnes. Truly belongs in the hall of fame of whisky.(is there one??)
Problably ralfy is right this wishky is younger than 10yo. One dimensional and the nose doesnt traslate to the palate have bought a bottle in 2017 and didnt convinced me this year i gave it a second chance and nono sir it's not nice i rather have a Caol ila 12 or Glenfiddich 12 instead of this one.
Beyond the horizon of oak comes a hint of apple peel. Sipped outside the Talisker distillery with el boys. Sublime.
The best. Full stop.
Very different yet enjoyable malt! My go to malt is and always will be glenfiddich 15 - for peaty notes and flavours, my go to is jura superstition. The best way to describe talisker is happy medium of the two. Where jura leaves a very peaty and smomey after taste, this talisker leaves a slighly less harsh, oceanic salt flavour behind. Its not neccesarily a malt I would drink in abundance but certainly will sample on occasion! Worth a go!
