The Distillers Edition Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750ml

Bottle size

Founded in 1825 by brothers, Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill, the Talisker distillery was initially a flop. In 1880 its fortunes changed when Roderick Kemp and Alexander Allen purchased the distillery and drove it into a success, eventually to be purchased by Diageo. Fast forward to 1998 when Talisker was promoted to a founding member of the Classic Malts Selection of Diageo, upping the offerings to include 57?orth, Storm, Dark Storm, and Port Ruighe. It is now one of Diageo's most important single malt brands. The Distillers Edition Double Matured Amoroso Sherry Cask Wood Single Malt has been double-matured in a second cask after the original maturation period (in this case in an Amoroso Sherry cask). This creates an older, sweeter and richer spirit than the regular bottlings with a special bitter-sweet character. …

About the brand

Tasting Notes

Nose

This is beautiful stuff. Extremely sharp and well focused; no lingering, rambling smoke here. There is also a quite wonderful sultana sweetness. One of the most tantalising sherry noses you can find - certainly the cleanest. Remarkable - the stuff of legend.

Taste

A magnificent start - the peat, crisp at first, softens to enormous richness in the mouth, then wafts around the palate with sweet, roasty malt and a heathery dryness. The sherry keeps back Talisker’s usual pepper, replacing it with luscious, slightly oily sweetness - ripe, juicy fruit and vanilla

Finish

This Edition has a very special bitter sweet harmony where the peat softens on the palate to a rich, sweet, juicy fruit finish.
