Founded in 1825 by brothers, Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill, the Talisker distillery was initially a flop.

It is now one of Diageo's most important single malt brands.

Amazing. Sweet and smoky with traces of dark pepper

Posted on Jul 16th, 2020

Same ABV as the multi year which is amazing. It's excellent yet do I notice a multi year distinction with the 10? Not entirely certain. It is a thicker" and all the more covering mouth feel. A touch spicier and a more extended completion. I surmise I talked myself into it. I think I am feeling the loss of the botanical properties which isn't enthusiastic about my rundown yet perhaps I will figure out how to welcome that viewpoint more as my sense of taste develops in time."

Tasting Notes

Nose

Quite clean and fresh. There is a mixed fruity sweetness with a spicy character. The peat and smoke rise with notes of perfume and thick oak. Hints of Calvados and a touch of acidity with ground ginger.

Taste

Thick, rich and full-bodied. Notes of spicy, peppery oak, espresso beans and wood smoke. A little allspice creeps in, there is a certain zesty character lurking somewhere. The spice builds and builds with utter intent.

Finish

Long, with peppery oak.
