Douglas Laing Provenance Young & Feisty (distilled at Talisker), 46%

Price: 110 Issue: Fall 2014 Reviewer: Gavin Smith Category: Single Malt Scotch

Douglas Laing has added a no age statement bottling of Talisker to its Provenance range, tagging it as “Young and Feisty.” It comprises whisky from casks #10227 and 10229. Lively and up front, with bubblegum, wood smoke, and black pepper on the nose. Developing ozone. Zesty soft fruits, emerging dark peat notes, and more pepper on the palate. The finish is quite short, nutty, and slightly metallic. Young and feisty indeed!£65
