Description

Talisker Select Reserve Game of Thrones House Greyjoy (70cl / 45.8%) is a maritime?focused island single malt that celebrates the Skye distillery?s rugged coastal character with a touch of dramatized packaging flair. It opens with salted sea spray, smoked seafood and cracked black pepper, underpinned by ripe orchard fruit and a hint of honeyed sweetness. On the palate it is robust yet rounded, with waves of chilli?like spice, briny malt, charred oak and a soft fruitiness that keep the 45.8% ABV from feeling harsh. The finish is long, smoky and peppery, echoing the storm?tossed seas associated with House Greyjoy. This whisky shines best neat or with a drop of water, making it a fitting after?dinner or fireside dram. Pair it with a Dunhill White Spot Amber Root or Dunhill White Spot Cumberland, Dunhill White Spot Sidecar Case (10s) Zig?Zag Gawith Hoggarth Brown House, Edwin Jagger silvertip lather, Wilsons Snuff Red M., and a Davidoff Petit Corona or a full?bodied Nicaraguan puro to let its coastal fire and spice mirror the tobacco?s depth and kick.
