I got a bottle last Christmas. Very nice dram.

any opinions on the isle of jura 10 year old single malt or the talisker

I find Jura a bit odd - it has a distinct iodine undercurrent and a slightly saline finish. It's not bad, but it's not a syrupy thing.

Talisker, imho, is fabulous - smokey without the standing in a bonfire you get from Lagavulin; clean tasting; and hinting that you're by the sea but not in it. Talisker are doing various named bottling at the moment but straight up 10yo should be the place to start (again IMHO)

Distinct lack of Scottish Whisky there RCH!

Yeah, what's up with that?! :-P

Also *knob* creek, hahaha. Seriously though, working my way through a bottle of that, it's good stuff.

Both are a decent dram, I used to drink nothing but Jura however these days I have broadened my tastes and out of the two I would probably go with the Talisker.

The Talisker Port Wood finish is excellent! Port Roighe or something it's called.

Love these descriptions, Moose. Well written! You should be writing pro-reviews [emoji1360]

Lagavulin 16 year old for me at the moment. Just needs a drop of water to open it up, such a wonderful peaty aroma.

Couldn't resist opening the bottle during the fight...was a beautiful smooth drink....no water or ice stone needed. Highly recommended trying it.
