I don't usually drinky my scotch with cubes. It destroys the nose, as Bill aka Mole referenced.
Tobus, it is pretty tasty.
Has anyone ever had Talisker? I saw it in a documentary about Scotland but I've never seen it in person.

I just received a bottle of Talisker for my birthday. It is one of the distiller's series, distilled in 2001 and bottled in 2012 according to the label. The label also indicates it is double aged. Can't wait to pull the cork on that one.
Getting back to the OpeningPost, I finally saw the actual commercial on television this evening.

I'd love to get your opinion of Talisker. I'm curious about it.
The commerial...hmm...nice seeing a Scotch commercial (VERY rare in California...not exactly a lot of Scottish fare in the forefront here), though a bit hokey.

I generally like Talisker, it is a nice change up from the Laphraoig that I normally choose. I just got a bottle of Talisker, distiller's edition, double aged, distilled in 2001 / bottled in 2012 for my birthday. I've not pulled the cork on that one yet, but will definately give a review when I do.

The ice made me cringe - it really kills the nose, and that was the first thing that really got my attention.
It's interesting hearing people talk different types/styles of whisky. Although I can drink any scotch, I definitely prefer the single malts, but ANY Irish, bourbon, or other whiskey, except maybe Japanese makesmakes me very ill... A friend just reckons its coz of the price when he's buying though...

Apparently all of the agents and managers in Hollywood are getting a good chuckle about her ads and her...um..."accent." A lot of them are wondering if she will be changing Reps soon...
