The thing that strikes me is that, while I like the standard 10-year-old Talisker, it's quite a long way down the list of my favourite whiskies, so I'm just so pleasantly surprised by how delicious the 18-year-old is.
EDIT: ahh, page break, our old friend. If anyone wants to get the context of what I'm talking about, you can click back to the last post on the previous page. Or, you can just pretend that I'm rambling to myself about whisky! Either way works well, I think.
