Diageo, the world’s largest spirits company, as well as the planet’s largest distiller of Scotch whisky, has been releasing each year, since 2001, a selection of 10 special releases from its hallowed whisky vaults.
The latest 2018 releases consist of bottlings from stocks of now closed distilleries, and special new expressions from their existing lineup of single malts, which features both extra young and extra old age statements, whiskies bottled at cask strength or whiskies not previously available as single malts.
This Talisker is an 8-year-old bottling which really harks throws us back to times gone by for the Isle of Skye distillery.
It was matured in first fill ex-bourbon casks and bottled at a natural cask strength of 59.4% ABV.
Limited to 1 bottle per customer.
Nose: Powerful with a kick of chilli-pepper and smoke to start this Talisker off nicely!
Palate: Slightly oily and and sweet with Talisker's characteristic sea salt which we've come to expect.
Finish: A touch of salt and a fair bit of spice lingers on this finish.
