Talisker 30 2011 Limited Edition

Country: Scotland

Region: Highlands

Type: Single Malt

Bottler: Distiller

ABV: 45.8%

Score: 95 Points

This comes from Bourbon casks, and the nose is subtle and clean with mild oak, a whiff of swimming pools, tar and creosote, and seaweed. The taste has notes of mild peat and ground pepper, charred oak, honey, vanilla, and caramel candy. The finish is amazingly long. A damn good dram!
