Talisker 10 year old 45.8%

Now if you love Talisker then you have to make the pilgrimage to the Isle of Skye. I have had the good fortune to do so many times. For that reason I've chosen the Talisker 10 year old 45.8% which has a pleasant smokey bouquet and leaves your palate tingling with spices and pepper, and a fruitiness of Braeburn apples. I like this tipple, and with three other expressions in the cupboard I can't wait to leave you my thoughts. This dram deserves its rightful place with all good drams, albeit now owned by the multi- nationals. Where would Talisker be if they had not been procured by them and had the use of their mighty marketing strength?
