Description

Talisker 18 Year Old is a highly acclaimed single malt Scotch whisky from the Isle of Skye, known for its distinctive volcanic style and maritime character. First introduced as a permanent expression around 2004-2006, it has garnered numerous awards, including 'Best Single Malt in the World' at the 2007 World Whiskies Awards. Matured in a combination of ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks, this 18-year-old expression offers a more refined and balanced profile compared to its younger counterparts, showcasing a harmonious blend of fruit, sweetness, smoke, and spice.

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.
Palate
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.
