Nose
Restrained coastal smoke, sea air, light brine, gentle iodine — then ripe fruit unfolds: orange peel, apricot, peach, dried fruits, perfumed and elegant
Palate
Rich sweet peat smoke, maritime salinity, Talisker's signature peppery spice, baking spices — rounded, full, the 18 years of maturation integrating everything beautifully
Finish
Medium-long to long — warming pepper and salt lingering alongside fading smoke, toffee, vanilla, dried fruit and honey, finishing with dry oak
