Talisker Connoisseur-1958
Black & Red Connoisseur Choice. Bottled in 1980's by Gordon & MacPhail, Elgin.
Good labelling, lightly scuffed main label and nicked neck label. Level: top shoulder.

"...Starts on 'peated sultanas' and develops on myriads of tiny flavours, smokes, ashes, waxes, fruits, spices, salt, syrups, resins, herbs extracts. And as often with old peaters, there's this 'cough syrup effect' (CSE, yep that just came out). Finish: maybe not the longest ever but there's a perfect resinous smokiness." (5 stars Whiskyfun)

75cl. Single Malt., 40% volume.
