Talisker Distillers Edition TD-S: 5NZ 2000 | 750ML Tasting Notes

Nose: Chocolate sweetness, caramel, sherry, raisins, leathery and coffee. Very mild for a Talisker.

Palate: Peat smoke, sure, but again subtle. Very sweet in the middle, and quite dry as well.

Finish: Warming peat smoke, with that vanilla and malty note to guide it through to the lengthy aftertaste.

Distillery Information

Talisker is one of the most popular and well-known Scottish single malt whisky brands in the world, forming part of Diageo's Classic Malt series. The distillery is the only one in operation on the Hebridean island of Skye. The large portfolio includes a range of aged expressions centred on the highly-regarded 10-year-old, This displays Talisker's hallmark combination of peatiness (more subtle than Ardbeg or Laphroaig on Islay) with rich, sweet dried fruit flavors. The more restrained, elegant and much more expensive 30-year-old is also a regular release. At the time of writing special editions ran from 8- to 43-year-old. The lineup also features non-age-statement bottlings and year-dated expressions. As part of Diageo, it also contributes to the Distillers Edition series, and produces one of the series of Game of Thrones whiskies (House Greyjoy). The distillery lies on the shore of Loch Harport, overlooked by The Cuillin mountain rabge. There are five stills operational, producing some 2 million liters of spirit annually. The water is sourced from springs in the Cuillin Hills, which overlook the distillery. Due to the relatively poor soils on Skye, the barley is grown in the area known as the Muir of Ord, on the mainland, some eight miles (20km) west of Inverness.
