Tasting Notes

Nose

Green apple, fresh-cut grass, honey, hazelnut praline, a wisp of peat smoke — the four distilleries in conversation

Palate

Apricot jam, baked apple with brown sugar, vanilla toffee, crème brûlée — the Talisker and Caol Ila peat threading through without dominating

Finish

Medium — gentle sweet ash, refreshing salinity where the Caol Ila and Talisker smoke emerge, clean and moreish

Expert Review

8/10

A blended malt (not blended Scotch — no grain whisky) of four single malts: Talisker, Linkwood, Cragganmore, and Caol Ila, all aged minimum 15 years. Launched 1997 as 'Pure Malt 15,' renamed Green Label 2004. Discontinued globally in 2012 due to aged malt shortages. Brought back in 2016 by popular demand — one of the few whiskies revived this way, earning a cult following.
