Talisker 8 Year Old (Special Release 2018)

An 8-year-old bottling from Talisker really harks back to times gone by for the Isle of Skye distillery. That's probably why this edition is one of the most anticipated entries in this year's Diageo Special Releases. Whether your someone who remembers the wonderful old-school Taliskers from the 1970s and 1980s or someone who is keen to see what all the fuss was about, this rich and refined release should prove very rewarding. It was matured in first fill ex-bourbon casks and bottled at a natural cask strength of 59.4% ABV.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose

Super medicinal: this one is all about the Bonjela notes. There's metallic peat smoke of course, along with topical pineapple, strawberry, roast pork, peppery vanilla, and a toffee backdrop.

Palate

Powerful - this one packs a punch. There's pepper, wood smoke, pork sausages on a barbeque, apple sauce, coffee beans, butterscotch and blackcurrant. There's a cranberry-citrus sharpness, too.

Finish

Long and lingering, and all about that woodsmoke-fruit balance.

Overall

Talisker works VERY well as a younger release – this drop proves it.
