Talisker 10 Year Old

The emblematic whisky of the Isle of Skye. It combines moderate smoke with a marked maritime character and an explosion of black pepper that makes it unmistakable. Its strength of 45.8% ABV gives it body and power without being aggressive, and under the smoke come fruit and some sweetness. It is a perfect midpoint between gentle malts and the most extreme Islays, and very versatile, even in cocktails.

Nose

Sea breeze, peat smoke and black pepper, with dried fruit, some citrus and caramel.

Palate

Intense and spicy. Pepper, salt, smoke and sweet malt, with ripe fruit and a touch of caramel.

Finish

Long, peppery and smoky, with a briny finish and an echo of pepper.
