Description
This Talisker Distillers Edition was distilled in 2010 and bottled in 2020. It has been double matured in Amoroso Casks.
The Distillery say that 'Richer than the regular bottling, this wonderfully rounded Distillers Edition double-matured in ex-Amoroso casks has a luscious, fruity sweetness that perfectly compliments the crisp, dry peat-smoke and familiar pepperiness of Talisker. Irresistible with rich, dark chocolate.'
Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Sharp and well focused; no lingering, rambling smoke here. A sultana sweetness. One of the most tantalising sherry noses - certainly the cleanest |
Taste |
Distillery: Crisp peat then softens to great richness in the mouth. Sweet, roasty malt with heathery dryness. Sherry notes keep back some pepper. In its place is luscious, slightly oily sweetness with juicy fruit and vanilla. |
Finish |
Distillery: Some very deep cocoa notes, vanilla and lingering quite earthy peat. An enormously chewable single malt, with sweetness having the edge on dryness. |
