Initially launched for travel retail, Talisker Neist Point Single Malt Scotch Whisky is named after Skye’s most westerly point with the lighthouse depicted on the fold out box. It’s a no age statement release that’s said to use some of their “finest, rare casks that have been left to rest longer” alongside younger whiskies to create the desired flavour experience.
In order to produce more intense and powerful flavours, Talisker Neist Point is not chill-filtered before bottling Its flavours, like the seas that surround the Isle of Skye, start softly, then slowly but surely build to deliver wave after wave of sea salt, spice and swirling, volcanic smoke, before reaching a warming and sweetly smoky finish.
Talisker Neist Point Tasting Notes
Nose:Â Caramel, toasted sweet spices, vanilla and, as with many of the newer Taliskers, definite smoke.
Palate:Â More of the same on the palate, which is no bad thing, with pear drops and fennel seed welcome additions.
Finish:Â Sweet smoke, sweet spice, slightly drying. Very long.
