Magnificent; crisp peat softens to enormous richness, then wafts around sweet, roasted malt, leaving a heathland dryness. After another repeated tasting in a direct comparison to 2 older versions in the previous design, I now have to lower the rating a bit, since the new bottling has noticeably decreased. Talisker has a unique identity which sets it apart as much as being the only distillery on Skye does. Talisker double-matured in ex-bodega Amoroso cask wood for rich and fruity sweetness that rounds out the peaty, peppery punch of the malty regular release, to create a richly rewarding and deeperstyle of malt.
