Description

Launched in 1997, the Talisker Distillers Edition is part of Diageo's 'Classic Malts' series, featuring limited release bottlings double-matured in specially selected wine casks. This 2003 vintage was distilled in 2003 and bottled in 2014, having undergone a secondary maturation period in Jerez Amoroso sherry casks, which imparts rich, fruity notes to Talisker's characteristic maritime and smoky profile. Bottled at 45.8% ABV, it offers a complex and balanced taste experience.

Nose
Piquant notes of sea air, sea spray, brine, oyster shells, and seaweed, balanced by sweet aromas of apricot, tangerine, apple, orange peel, caramel, vanilla, and figs, with hints of peat smoke, pink peppercorns, and light spice.
Palate
A sweet entry with a full, oily mouthfeel, featuring butterscotch, dark chocolate, and dried fruits, followed by an explosion of smoke, tar, peat, salt, and black pepper, with notes of orange peel, oak, and woody spiciness.
Finish
Long and warming, with lingering notes of salt, smoke, pepper, and sweet fruit, complemented by dry nuances of peat smoke, cocoa, and gentle bitterness.
