Tasting Notes

Nose

Sea air, charcoal, clove, white pepper, dried tropical fruits, faint whipped cream

Palate

Sweet-and-salty — dried fig, peppery spice, grilled pineapple, lemon peel, hints of smoke

Finish

Surprisingly mellow — fruit salad and a beach bonfire flicker at the close

First Impressions

Talisker 30 — flagship aged Skye. Refill American oak. 45.8%.

Tasting

Sea air and clove nose. Sweet-salty figgy palate. Mellow fruit-bonfire finish. Maritime grandeur.

The Verdict

Talisker 30 earns a 9 — mellowed pepper into oceanic grandeur at £950. Three decades of Skye perfectly preserved.
