TASTING NOTES TALISKER SPECIAL RESERVE - HOUSE GREYJOY

Nose

medium intensity, starts with notes of white pepper and salt, then hints of burned wood that flow into notes of caramel and vanilla. Honey candy, yellow apple and black pepper. Nose without great complexity.

Palate

intensity just above average. Oily, black pepper and slight salinity, all on notes of ripe yellow fruit. There is peat and traces of dry wood present. Hints of coffee beans and dark chocolate with salt.

Finish

medium persistency. Vanilla, yellow fruit, spicy dryness of black pepper and maritime notes of salt.

Talisker Select Reserve - House Greyjoy is a young Talisker, simple and enveloping, particularly on the palate. It is certainly not the best Talisker in history. It lacks complexity and characteristics that the company has always emphasized in each of its releases.
