Talisker 30yr Scotch Release 2021
APPEARANCE
Full gold.
BODY
Medium-bodied and viscous with long legs.
NOSE
Mild and unusually fruity, fading quickly into lush seaweed with charred sticks. Becoming soft and very slightly waxy or creamy, like fudge.
PALATE
The smoke is immediate and dry with creamy oak. Almond milk and light, sweet stone fruits emerge, joined by a trace of salt.
FINISH
Long, gently warming, with a lingering maritime aftertaste and just a white pepper tingle on the tongue in place of that chilli ‘catch'.
TALISKER is the only Single Malt Scotch Whisky made on the Isle of Skye besides the shore of Loch Harport in the jagged shadow of the peaks of The Cullin.
Founded in 1830 by Hugh MacAskill, TALISKER distillery remains faithful to traditional valuves. A hundred and eighty years of knowledge has been passed down through generations of distillers.
The result is this much prized whisky, described by famous Scottish poet Robert Louis Stevenson as the "the king o' drinks". Made by the sea in every sense, the powerful peat smoke and maritime character of TALISKER reflect its storm-lashed surroundings.
