25 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky cl 70 - Talisker

Initially salty, then sweet and spicy on the nose, with summer berries, heather honey and an earthy note, as well as subtle peat. Gavin Smith, Whiskey Advocate Fall 2012 Region Isle of Skye. I wait Hot gold. Nose Not reduced, a quiet nose, not extremely assertive, but quite maritime. Fresh ship paint. Prickle nose weak. Spicy, salty, with distant smoke. Body Smooth and firm body. Palate At the bottled strength, a delicate start, which immediately develops in intensity. Slow and sweet, then takes on peppery and hot, with notable balancing bitterness and salt and some smoke. Long, warm, slightly bitter and very dry, with some smoke.
