Talisker 10 Years with Tasse + Grußkarte
The aroma of the 10 year old Talisker is smoky and malty-sweet. The taste is fittingly strong, explosive - even spicy. A fulminate finish follows, a real 'after burner'. The Talisker is part of the spiciest Malts that are currently available.

RATING: 4.0/5.0 ≙ 88 pts
Rating of article "Talisker 10Y - 45.8% - 0.7l"
Full fresh peat smoke (smoky not medicinal). A marine saltiness and savoury component which I'd most liken to fish sauce. Malty buiscuity note like digestive biscuits.
Taste:
Full bodied, sweet arrival. Upfront smokiness gives way to caramel, dried fruit and citrus peel. Lots going on and a very well judged bottling strength.
Finish:
Medium to long in length, more residual dried fruit and maltiness. Some background black pepper.
Comment:
Going over my old reviews I was surprised to see I hadn't done a Talisker yet. This one is definitely worth a try for anyone, and if I was recommending an Islay malt for a first timer this would probably be it. The smokiness is well integrated and not overpowering. There's plenty going on in the palate as well, and the finish is good also. All around very solid. If I was nitpicking I would say it maybe lacks a little character here and there, but mostly that comes down to personal preference; this is really very good stuff. This is especially true when you consider the price, affordable and available.
