Product Info
Produced at the Isle of Skye's oldest distillery, Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky has been crafted by the sea since 1830, and its aromas and flavors instantly evoke the rugged coastal homeland. Every sip is a taste of the Isle of Skye itself, one of Scotland's most remote and ruggedly beautiful landscapes. Released annually, the Talisker Distillers' Edition is second-maturated for up to six months in Ex-Amoroso sherry casks, softening the sharp peat notes from the peppery notes to rich, sweet, and juicy fruit, creating a sweet-and-bitter balance. Each sip, full-bodied, opens with a sharp peat, leading to a profound richness of sweet, roasted malt and heather dryness. The finish boasts deep cocoa notes, magnificent vanilla, and a lingering earthy peat note. This rich Talisker Distillers' Edition is delicious served on the rocks or with a splash of water. Mature, rich and sweet, this whisky makes a fantastic gift for whisky connoisseurs and lovers of the Talisker family's smoky Irish single malts.
