✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The Talisker Bodega Series 40 Year Old is an extraordinary, ultra-rare single malt Scotch whisky that celebrates the historic trade connections between the Isle of Skye and the legendary sherry bodegas of Spain. Distilled in 1978, this exceptional expression was matured for four decades, culminating in a finish in precious, hand-selected 40-year-old Amontillado sherry casks from Delgado Zuleta, one of the oldest sherry producers in Jerez. This rare marriage of Skye's rugged, maritime peat smoke and fiery black pepper with the deep, oxidized complexity of ancient Spanish oak creates a legendary spirit. The traditional wooden worm tubs of Talisker preserve an oily, full-bodied texture, making this one of the most complex and coveted releases in the distillery's long history.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Talisker blev grundlagt i 1830 af brødrene Hugh og Kenneth MacAskill ved de vindblæste bredder af Loch Harport i Carbost og er det ældste aktive destilleri på Isle of Skye. Destilleriet er berømt for sit unikke destillationsapparat med svanehalsede wash stills og traditionelle, udendørs worm tubs (kondenseringskar), som tilfører råspritten en karakteristisk maritim og vulkansk intensitet. Talisker er i dag en del af Diageos Classic Malts-portefølje og fastholder en kompromisløs dedikation til at skabe kraftfulde, røgede single malt skotske whiskyer. Destilleriets signaturstil er hyldet verden over for sit harmoniske samspil mellem kystnær salthed, fyldig tørverøg, dybde fra tørret frugt og en umiskendelig, krydret eftersmag af sort peber.
