A restrained and elegant Talisker 30, this really was one of the best of 2011's Special Releases. Its three decades of maturation have produced an elegant and sophisticated whisky.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Very reserved, and slow. Fruit acidity, red apple skins and dried fruits, with sweeter notes of rum toffee, chocolate brownies. Followed by sooty smoke with alluring, aromatic spices: frankincense, clove, cedar.
Slow but consistent, with autumn berries and dried fruit. Cherry stones. Cooling at first, then becoming hot and lively.
Long, with roasted malt, the ghost of black pepper, and some nutmeg in the smoky and savoury aftertaste.
A hugely complex and rewarding release.
