Found a “Classic Malts Collection” 3 pack at one of my favorite haunts for $39.99, consisting of 200ml bottles of Talisker 10, Caol Ila 12, and Clynelish 14.
I can’t add anything beyond what numerous other fine reviews here have said.
The nose is very much of the sea with brine and seaweed notes, there is also fresh peat, light vanilla and citrus notes, fantastic oily, coating and rich palate with brine, smoked meats, peat and citrus notes, the medium length finish is slightly peppery.

Always a solid choice. In terms of flavours, comparing between the customary four including Ardbeg 10, Laphroaig 10, Lagavulin 16 this is the quietest, most balanced one
