Talisker Cask Strength Whisky Miniature 17 Year Old

Colour

Deep copper-amber with mahogany edges and a warm molten-gold glow.

Nose

Briny peat smoke and sea spray rise from the glass, carried on a crisp maritime breeze. Iodine and mineral notes mingle with peppery spice, while vanilla and toffee weave through dark dried fruit. Oak lends structure, with a subtle sherry sweetness adding depth, all wrapped in bold, cask-strength warmth and a lingering smoky grace.

Palate

Powerful yet refined, this 17-year-old cask-strength Talisker delivers a maritime onslaught: salt spray, iodine and cracked pepper ride over brisk peat smoke. Rich honeyed sweetness, dried fruit and dark vanilla layer in, while charred oak lends gravity. The finish is long and warming, with citrus zest, smoke and a lingering, peppery warmth.

Finish

Long, maritime finish with coastal smoke and black pepper, tempered by salt and dried fruit from the sherry cask. Rich fig and cocoa notes linger before a warm, oak-driven fade and a final wisp of sea air.
