Talisker 18 Year
Peated Single Malt — Islands, Scotland
Reviewed January 8, 2023 (edited June 16, 2023)Nose: Coffee, maple syrup Palate: Oak, allspice, orange, molasses Finish: Oak, pepper This has the characteristic Talisker pepper but the age has softened the smoke and brine. Tasty but at £175 I’ll probably never buy a bottle. 7.5/10 -
Nose: Toasted malt, clove, vanilla, smoke Palate: Oaky vanilla, cooked pear, cinnamon Finish: Salted butter, baked apple, hint of pepper, clove This has a bit of funkiness on the palate that I usually only get from unpeated Bruichladdich whiskies. It adds a different edge to this and I really like it. 8/10103.0 GBP per Bottle

Port Charlotte SC:01 2012
Peated Single Malt — Islay, Scotland
Reviewed January 7, 2023 (edited January 15, 2023)Nose: Toasted barley, lemon, smoke Palate: Citrus, honey, oak Finish: Smoke, sweet cinnamon, orange peel, brown sugar Sweet, smoky and citrusy. Really good. 8/1090.0 GBP per Bottle -
Nose: Spices, malt, red fruits Palate: Malt, sea salt, red fruits Finish: Spices, pepper and a hint of salted butter I really don’t get much peat smoke on this. I find the nose quite muted compared to other Port Charlotte whiskies but the nose and palate open up more with a little bit of water. 7.5/10

Caol Ila 11 Year Old 2007 Single Cask (Master of Malt)
Peated Single Malt — Scotland
Reviewed January 5, 2023Nose: Brine, vanilla, soft peat Palate: Soft and creamy vanilla, peat smoke Finish: More peat, peppery heat, hint of lime I like this slightly more than the regular Caol Ila 12 Year Old. 7.5/10 -

Peated Single Malt — Scotland
Reviewed January 5, 2023Nose: Sea air, honey Palate: Brown sugar, anise, pepper, hint of peat smoke Finish: Peppery and coastal with a hint of peat smoke A good whisky but I prefer the smoky, citrus and maritime notes of Caol Ila 12 Year Old 6.5/10
