Hi guys. How's it going? I'm starting off this week with tasting session number 2 for the @whiskypeater samples 😉 This time we have two peated whiskies: The Talisker DE and the Millstone PX 2013. Both are, like I said, peated. While the Talisker DE was somehow familiar, the Millstone was completely new and maybe a bit too much for me 😂 So, here are the reviews for these two bad boys 😉. . Talisker Distillery Exclusive Bottling : Nose: I get smoke right away, with sherry, citrus and fruits. As a Talisker signature it's got a coastal salty air to it with a tint of sweet cinnamon and fresh honey. . Palate: The salty notes are there but faded and give way to sugary sweet honey flavors and spices. Again smoky but less than on the nose, with fruits, chocolate and vanilla. . Finish: I would say medium, with subtle salt notes and the smoke which gives way to vanilla and salted caramel. . Millstone PX 2013: Nose: A big smoked and salty kick 😄Surprisingly more salty than the Talisker DE. It has a nice combination of sea salt earthy peat and dried fruit, with minerals and oak. . Palate: It's like a sweet and sour mix, more sour than sweet. Also orange, pepper and roasted oak, then some mint. . Finish: Long, more peat coming through, with a diesel like tinge and some burnt rubber, with some oak and maybe orange. . As a conclusion, I enjoyed the Talisker a lot, it's a solid peated scotch. But the Millstone was a bit too rough I think, I enjoyed it, but I think it's not really "my cup of tea" let's say 🙂 What do you guys think about these two? Which one have you tried? Which one did you like better? Cheers! 🥃✨🥃👌🏻💨. . #talisker #taliskerde #millstone #millstonewhisky #scottishwhisky #whisky #whiskey #scotch #shotoniphone #shotonsony #instagood #firewaterxo #scotchwhisky #instawhisky #instascotch #whiskyporn #whiskygram #whiskybar #whiskylover #bottle #drinks #whiskylove #apple #cluj #romania #cigar #vegasrobaina #vegasrobainacigars #cuban #cubancigar https://www.instagram.com/p/BpzmqIwH67b/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=9e6mqtp6qurl
