Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky (1980's Bottling) 10 Year Old

Colour

Deep amber-gold with a coppery glow and a warm bronze edge.

Nose

Piercing maritime peat and sea spray, laced with iodine and black pepper. Smoky brine sits atop subtle sherry sweetness—dried figs, raisins and caramelized orange peel mingle with toasted almond and vanilla. A coastal, sun-warmed breeze of salt and smoke lingers, a classic Talisker profile in bold, refined balance.

Palate

Bold maritime peat floods the palate, tempered by briny sea spray and a whisper of citrus zest. Pepper spills across the tongue, mingling with a subtle honeyed sweetness as char and mineral notes drive a long, ember-scented finish that lingers like a coastal glow.

Finish

Long, maritime finish with briny peat and peppery warmth. Smoke lingers, carried by sea-salt notes and iodine, slowly giving way to a dry, mineral echo of ash and oak. A refined, lingering warmth that seals Talisker’s coastal character on the palate.
