Tasting notes från Malt Maniacs: Officiella tasting notes:

The last malt of the evening was the Talisker 20yo 1982/2003 (58.8%, OB, Bourbon, 12000 Bottles).
Nose: Sweet and smooth. Very faint organics in the background, slowly moving to the front.
A little metallic. Peat? Quite pleasant, but not nearly as complex or expressive as the 81/02.
Palate: Sweet and smooth with a peppery prickle in the dry centre. Malty. Grows hotter.
Chewy. Something fruity - water melon? Dry, peaty and very salty after five minutes.
Score: 80 points. It seems we're back on earth... This is a very decent dram, but it doesn't even come close to any of the other Taliskers I tried tonight - in fact it's the 'worst' Talisker I ever had. I'm sorry I didn't pick up a few spare bottles of the 81/02 Sherry, but I'm glad I didn't waste more than 100 Euro's on this one.

I particularly like this very 'maritime' example of the mighty Isle of Skye malt. Toast, seaweed, and over-ripe fruit. Water brings up spice and linseed oil notes. Hot and salty with smoke in the finish.
"Charles Maclean April 2004"

Colour: Amber, with green tinge
Taste: Hot, peppery, slowly builds with a smooth oily saltiness.
Finish: Medium to long, light smokiness at the back.
