Unearthing a new depth of flavour, this exquisitely rare new Single Malt Scotch whisky from Talisker is the final release in a series of adventures in wild whisky making, finished in heavily charred, ice-fractured, Ex Bourbon American Oak casks. A limited release, only 2,455 bottles of this 45-Year-Old cask strength Single Malt Scotch are available for purchase.
This Single Malt Scotch whisky was aged for over four decades, revealing unexplored richness, complexity and a unique untamed flavour which is attributed to the whisky travelling deeper into the casks to obtain spicier and sweeter aromas from the American Oak ex-Bourbon barrels.
The texture is wondrously oil-smooth and mouth-filling; the taste starts toffee-sweet then becomes mouth-wateringly salty and increasingly peppery; even at this age there is a striking intensity to it, and a fine chili catch. An attractive saltiness to the toffee now suggests salted caramels, with slightly less pepper. The finish is long, with a glorious chili pepper effect and a trace of candle-wax; this grows in the aftertaste, in which both saltiness and pepper also persist.
