An excellent Talisker that reminds you that sometimes in the world of whisky, age is just a number
Nose
A very gentle & elegant nose for a 60% whisky, the smoke is very subtle although it is still obviously a more sea smoke & briny, sweet, salty, honey, slightly zesty
Body
Salty, mouthcoating, definitely a lot of sea smoke & oomph (as expected from a 60% whisky), oranges, not as hot or spicy as I would expect from a NAS whisky (a very good thing!)
Finish
Long, smoky, slightly creamy finish
