Talisker 1978 41 Year Old The Bodega Series No. 2 Single Malt Whisky 700ml

2000bottles produced

Whiskymaker's note:
A 41-year-old single malt from Talisker's Bodega series, this is the oldest whisky ever released from the Isle of Skye. It has been finished in Manzanilla sherry casks from Delgado Zuleta, creating a rich, fruity character alongside the distillery's signature coastal flavours. Salty, spicy aromas of apple crumble, salted caramel, dried fruits and salty smoke fill the nose. Initially the palate offers notes of pepper, wood smoke, fudge, raisins and smouldering driftwood, before developing chilli, peat smoke and caramel that linger in the finish.

Talisker is the only distillery on the Hebridean island of Skye and is one of the most popular and well-known Scottish single malt whisky brands in the world.

The brand dates back to 1831, when the MacAskill brothers opened their distillery at Talisker House in the settlement of Carbost on Skye's west coast. The building was a gift from the leader of the Clan MacLeod and the clan has remained associated with the distillery.
