Talisker's home on the Isle of Skye sits on the line of latitude 57° North, hence the name of this bold single malt, bottled at a weighty 57% ABV.
This bottle was part of a private collection - if you'd like more detailed photos just get in touch!
Move over, all mighty Ardbeg Uigeadail, Talisker 57 North is here!
Wow. The nose is strong, as expected at 57%. Ever slightly young. But sip, close your eyes, chew and let those juices release fireside warmth overlooking cloudy crashing waves. My word, this is good. Aaaand i bought two bottles. Badam tsss :-D
I’d give it ten stars ? if I could!
Very obviously young - too young - and lacking any particular depth of character. There is some of the ‘Talisker’ character here but even that is watered down sadly. For the price I wouldn’t pick this over the 10, let alone any of the much better alternatives out there.
