...where distraction is the main attraction.

The Taliskravaganza begins tomorrow...

Six days, Six Taliskers.  Three this week, three next week.  Some you may be expecting, some you won't.  Talisker Storm not included.

I was actually going to start in with the fun today, but then Diageo dropped the pricing and bottling news about their new Mortlach range (see here and here).  Worldwide facepalming ensued.  Dr. Nick Morgan once again demonstrated that (as if in a Monty Python sketch) he is being paid to insult the intelligence of his company's customers -- seriously, check out the quotes he gave for Roskrow's article.  And some of us were left wondering why Diageo is attempting to out-Macallan Macallan by going the Full Dalmore on the struggling Asian market.

Meanwhile, I wanted to approach Talisker's single malts with a positive, maybe even wistful, spin.  Especially since these may be my final Talisker reviews.  Thus I delayed the start of Taliskravaganza one day...
