Talisker 10 ans

Fiche Technique

Format

Bottle 70cl

Born on the wild shores of Skye, this single malt has been shaped by sea spray, salt air and Hebridean winds for over two centuries. Matured for ten years in oak casks, it opens with a warm burst of smoke before unfolding into pepper, dried fruit and a gentle maritime saltiness. The finish is famously peppery, lingering long after the last sip — a signature you'll recognise instantly. Pour it neat, add a drop of water to let it bloom, or enjoy it alongside smoked salmon and oysters. If you want a true taste of the Scottish coast, this is where you start.

Dalmore 12 ans

Aged for twelve years in the Scottish Highlands, this single malt comes from a distillery that has sat beside the Cromarty Firth since 1839, famous for its royal stag emblem. Nine years rest in American white oak ex-bourbon casks, then the spirit is split: half continues in oak, half moves into 30-year-old Matusalem oloroso sherry butts from Jerez. Married back together, you get a rich, rounded dram with notes of orange marmalade, chocolate and warm spice, backed by a gentle nuttiness. Smooth enough to sip neat, generous enough to share. A lovely place to start if you're exploring Highland malts.
