Tasting Notes by voidwp2556

Really nicely done, as this is a really nice departure from the standard Talisker releases. They switch the whisky over to Oloroso Sherry for finishing. Classic peat and cracked pepper aromas that one expects from Talisker, with that added sherry factor. This 16 year really shines in the finish, once your primary, classic Talisker flavors fade into incredibly complex nutty notes, with citrus and orange peel notes. Will certainly be on the lookout for newer releases of this Distiller's Edition!

I like Peat and sherry together, when done well. Talisker DE accomplishes this.

I don't care for overly sherried scotch with the exception of Aberlour A'bunadh, which is an animal.
