Nose: A rich, wine-forward aromatic profile leads with leather, prunes, and red currants, followed by an undercurrent of toasted oak, sweet malted barley, and a brooding, earthy peat smoke that balances hints of green apple and black pepper
Palate: The mouthfeel is thick and oily, delivering a sweet explosion of chocolate, vanilla taffy, and dark berry medley-including blackberries and cherries-that transitions into savory notes of roasted coffee, wood spices, and a persistent maritime peat
Finish: The finish is long and luxurious, characterized by lingering smouldering oak and signature earthy smoke that slowly trails off alongside sea salt, a peppery tingle, and the tart sweetness of dark red fruits.

Talisker Distillers Edition
The Talisker Distillers Edition, an annual release that is double matured for up to 6 months in ex-amoroso sherry casks, achieves bitter-sweet harmony as its crisp peat softens, not to pepper, but to rich, sweet, juicy fruit. An older, richer and sweeter expression that makes a fantastic gift for whisky connoisseurs and lovers of the Talisker family of smoky island single malt whiskies. Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillers Edition 2020 distilled in 2007, bottled in 2017.

Nose: Wafts of sweet, roasted malt, wood and pepper.
Palate: On the palate crisp peat softens to enormous richness, leaving a heathland dryness, with luscious, slightly oily sweetness; ripe, juicy fruit.
Finish: To finish with flavours of deep cocoa, vanilla and lingering, earthy peat. Very engaging; great sweet-dry balance, led by sweetness.
