Tasted in Whisky Magazine Issue 8 by Michael Jackson and Doug McIvor.

Whisky Magazine is the perfect complement to the dram in your glass. Every issue brings you fascinating articles on the art, science and romance of the 'water of life', plus page after page of tasting notes.

Tasting Notes

Michael Jackson

Nose
Bitter chocolate and fudge pralines. Toasted nuts with late salt and pepper.
Palate
Astonishingly toffeeish, then toasty. The distracting richness of these flavours introduces a shock of contrast when the seaweed and characteristic volcanic flavours suddenly erupt.
Finish
An explosion in a gale.
Comment
Sensational (both literally and figuratively).

Doug McIvor

Nose
Sulphury, deep and honeyed with a peppery character and traces of wet labrador.
Palate
Bursting with prickling sweetness and teasingly reticent to subside. Eventually the pepperiness allows an infusion of soft peatiness to infiltrate.
Finish
Gently and soothingly fades with all characteristic intact.
Comment
Talisker bigger though slightly calmer than ever. And rather more-ish.
