Description
This Talisker Distillers Edition was distilled in 2011 and bottled in 2021. It has been double matured in Amoroso Casks.
The Distillery say that '2011 Talisker double-matured in ex-bodega Amoroso cask wood for rich and fruity sweetness that rounds out the peaty, peppery punch of the malty regular release, to create a richly rewarding and deeperstyle of malt. Part of our 2021 Distillers Edition range. Limited quantities worldwide.'
Tasting Notes
Nose |
Distillery: Remarkable; the stuff of legend. Very well focused. Wonderful grapey sultana sweetness. Clean, tempting. |
Taste |
Distillery: Magnificent; crisp peat softens to enormous richness, then wafts around sweet, roasted malt, leaving a heathland dryness. Wood controls the pepper; luscious, slightly oily sweetness; ripe, juicy fruit. |
Finish |
Distillery: Deep cocoa, vanilla and lingering, earthy peat. Very engaging; great sweet-dry balance, led by sweetness. |
