Did you catch my post before I edited it? I've visited many times, usually bunk in the village for Cuillin excursions. What a drop what a place.

I got the email, shows what you said in your post before you deleted/altered it Lol but I love that place and will make some time next year to revisit and rekindle my love for a good isle of skye whisky Single malt whisky is what I like best and as far as I know Talisker is the only one made on skye "Mac na Mara" and "Poit Dhubh" are blended but very fine products.

Talisker is a lovely whisky.

 

I don't know how you can tell, it all tastes like petrol to me

[Paul Barton]

Ha! I used to think the same Dean, until I spent a couple of weeks on Islay and visited a few distilleries. Now the taste takes me straight back there - the smokiness, the peat...sounds proper pretentious I know but I do love it.

 

Wouldn't give up beer for it or anything, but it's a nice treat.

I got into single malt when I lived in Argyll. But reverted to bitter when I came home.

 

I have had the occasional festive bottle of Talisker. This summer I won a bottle of Glenmorangie in a raffle. Was saving it for Christmas but needed it for medicinal purpose last month .

[Dean Lofthouse]

I had a jock in my room in the Army who used to polish of a small bottle a night.

 

I asked him what it tasted like to him, he just said it's like sipping honey.

 

I have been given a bottle yesterday by a bloke who's ill and I supply free logs to. It's Aberlour single 10 year aged.

 

might try and see if I can get used to the taste, just tried with a bottle of brandy I had given and it still tastes like petrol.

I've been feeling a little off colour lately, and its getting cold, any chance??

[Mick Stockbridge]

I nicked a bottle when I was fifteen,got hammered with a mate and its always tasted like petrol since.

15 years of living in southern Ireland gave me a liking to the pot distilleries over there due to the beer being so crap the first thing I did when I moved back to the UK was get hammered on some English real ale Boy did I miss a good beer. Im a Canadian by birth an went home to my folks in the summer and enjoyed so many imported whisky's over there, they have a real taste for the stuff and loads to try in almost all bars that I visited ( I must sound like a real piss head Lol) ..
