Producer Description
"Finished in American oak casks toasted by the heat of volcanic rocks from Skye. This Talisker expression was finished with an innovative process: new American oak casks toasted by the radiant heat of volcanic rocks from Skye. This finish, combined with the initial maturation in ex-bourbon casks, brings an elemental rush of maritime sweet smoke and spice. Wilder frontiers of flavour for fearless explorers."
750 mlProducer Tasting Note
"Journey to where ocean meets magma .Below wild unchartered seas deep volcanoes rumble. From the Isle of Skye, a land once sculpted by lava and ice, comes an expression with eruptive flavour. Experience taste as powerful as the moment the sea meets magma."

"Finished in stone-spun and lightly re-toasted casks." What does that even mean? To say we're curious doesn't even begin to cover it.
Producer Note
"For this 8-year-old expression, plunge into oceanic wilderness. A world of flavour lies beneath that signature maritime smoke. Experience the underlying notes unleashed by stone-spun casks. Like a tidal churn, the barrels’ original char layers are polished away by rocks and water, then lightly re-toasted, allowing fruity and vanilla characters to rise up freely. Selected from whiskies of rumbling smoke, underlying flavours pierce through. Waves of pear and apple emerge alongside blades of seaweed, pepper and spice."

This 18 year old Clynelish has been released by Diageo as part of the 2025 Special Releases. Nicknamed 'Waxen Sun', the whisky was matured in Refill Cask, and includes spirit from "cut point experiments". 51.6%
Producer Description
"The signature character of Clynelish Distillery is imbued with a sweet, tropical vibrancy from a unique experiment, in which a cut of the liquid is drawn early in the distillation process, when tropical flavour notes are prevalent. We call this the ‘Pineapple Cut’. Matured for at least 18 years in refill casks, notes of lush, ripe pineapple enliven the taste of wax and honey. Experience the feeling of that perfect place in the sun."

Mid-level peated malt from western Isle of Skye. This non-age stated Talisker seems to be a variant on Port Rhuighe, but cranked up to 59.7% abv. This one should be an absolute powder keg!

One of the truly singular Scottish single malt whiskies, Talisker boasts a character unlike any other and is almost instantly recognizable in any of its forms. The distillery, only a dozen years away from its 200th anniversary, is known worldwide for its moderate level of peat and smoke, but more famously for the rich pepper/chili notes and briny seaside flavors that run through the DNA of all the malt produced there. Some whiskies require lengthy maturation to hit full stride. Talisker is one that not only shines in youth but actually showcases its brightest characteristics in its early years. The 10 year old is undoubtedly a special whisky but is approachable enough to be a go-to in the rotation.
Bottled at a respectable 45.8% abv.
