Overall
Score
9.2
Nose
Complex, burning heather, sweet tobacco, old warehouse, spent bonfire. Underneath is almond paste/nougat, butter biscuits and a lightly herbal note. Plenty of smoke. Rich and complex.
Palate
A slow start, then pepper, a light smoked fish note, fruit syrup. Builds to an explosive finish.
Finish
Red peppercorn.
Comment
Truly fantastic. All of Talisker's attack...and then some.
