I am a fan of Islay whiskies, so it is no suprise that I enjoyed this offering from Talisker. Very familar to Islay whiskies, but a unique flavor.

Nice example of a Islay Scotch. Fails only when compared to the mighty Laphroaig quarter Cask.

Very enjoyable. I love the natural colour and the tripple cask adds some character. A little too sweet to drink everyday... fine bottle for the price ( but I wish I spent more and got a Laphoraig or Ardbeg)... but we do have to travel off the Island at times!

- Nose
- Alcohol with some smoke
- Body
- Drink it neat and you get Alcohol burn... add water and it gets better.
- Palate
- Smokey and sweet
- Finish
- warm... actually warms the whole body
As with all the McClellands, the Speyside has a Nice Price, good enough to drink... but you do get what you pay for... in this case, you get a bland wisky with very little character.
