Appearance:

Clear, deep golden amber.

Aroma:

Honey, toasted brown bread and smoked kipper. Faint pear fruit, black pepper and clove spice.

Taste:

Big peaty hit of smoky earthiness with charcoal and faint vegetal notes. Rich honeyed malty cereal with intense pepper, nutmeg and clove spice.

Aftertaste:

Aniseed notes emerge in the very long freshening finish with smoky toasty malt, pear fruit and light clove spice.

Overall:

A particularly smoky Talisker expression with rich honeyed malty cereal and intense pepper, nutmeg and clove spice.
