In anticipation of Friday's spectacular Scotch tasting event at Keegan's Pub in Minneapolis (7pm), I thought I'd whet your appetite with a daily preview of one of the fine selections of whisky that we'll be enjoying.
Today, we encounter the formidable Talisker:
Region: Highlands
Island: Skye
Color - Bright amber red.
Nose - Pungent, smoky-accented, rounded.
Body - Full, slightly syrupy.
Palate - Smoky, malty-sweet, with sourness and very big pepperiness developing.
Finish - Very peppery, huge, long.
Score - 90
Talisker; indulge only if ye be men of valour.
