Nose: Initial brine, but not as abrupt as the 10 Year Old, quite creamy by comparison. Banana. Banana angel delight? Window putty, hint of sticking plasters and barbecues, citrus. White pepper develops towards the bottom of the glass.Palate: Thick and mouth-coating with wood smoke, brine, some tin and chilli heat too.Finish: Red chilli peppers and oak dryness with a hint of embers.Overall: A welcome addition to the Talisker range, and probably the smokiest whisky to be produced on the Isle of Skye.
