A peaty evening this time around, comparing a standard Talisker 10yo to a new airport bottling, then blowing them both away (maybe?) with a cask strength Lagavulin 7yo.

Smells
Biscuit, fresh, pine cleaner, lavender.
Tastes
Tasty: living room the morning after a fire, biscuity, creamy, burnt toast, adrenalin, pre-puking taste in the throat (metallic). Grass and lemon. Basil.
Finishes
Despite not recording any finishes per se, it's safe to say this one had a long, enjoyable and peaty finish - which everyone seemed to enjoy!
Comments
Lime green colour, gloopy.
