The appeal here is the contrast between briny, maritime notes and sweeter touches of vanilla, salted caramel and fruit, with mild peat smoke in the background. The Amoroso cask finish sits alongside a palate of cocoa, pepper and salt, so this sounds more layered and assertive than soft or easygoing. The long, spicy finish should suit someone who enjoys Talisker’s salty character, though it’s not the gentlest fit for a preference for mellow flavours.
