Named the 'Best Single Malt Whisky in the World 2007' at the World Whiskies Awards, Talisker 18 Year Old is a single malt masterpiece.

Nose: Rich and fruity Victoria plums, greengages, perhaps dried orange peel with some butterscotch or rum toffee and a thread of smoke behind.
Palate: Sweet in front, then more assertive, with a whiff of smoke. The overall effect is warming. The development is towards smoke, coal-tar, and toffee.
Finish: Medium length with hints of tobacco, leather, and pepper.

Glenmorangie Cognac Cask 13 Year Old
This oaky and fruity small-batch release results from one of Dr. Bill's rare experiments with Cognac casks, elegantly winding notes of spice and leather with Glenmorangie's wondrous fruit flavours. Dr. Bill had long imagined finishing Glenmorangie in Cognac casks for a delicious marriage of flavours. While his early experiments were unsuccessful, this 13 year old Glenmorangie Cognac Cask Finish finally brings his dream alive.

Nose: Apple tart and toffee are delectably deepened by a subtle note of forest floor. Then Glenmorangie's fruity bursts of baked apples, oranges and pears fill the air. A splash of water releases scents of butter candy, more sweet pastry and a touch of beeswax, delicately lightened by mint.
Palate: Sweet and almost sparkling, like toffee apples and baked pears scattered with almonds and slices of mandarin orange. That fruitiness is deliciously threaded with clove, star anise and soft hints of leather.
Finish: Long, elegant and gently mentholic.
