Spirited Xchange Second Edition Talisker Tidal Churn Single Malt Whisky

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 character 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. Discover Talisker with surging elemental intensity and glorious dimension. Maritime smoke lingering on the tides.

APPEARANCE

Deep gold, amber lights. Good beading.

BODY

Medium to full.

PALATE

Very smooth, mouth-filling and creamy in texture, with a powerful taste that is sweet at first and salty midpalate.

FINISH

Lengthy, developing plenty of Talisker spiciness, with a Sichuan-pepper mouth-cooling effect in the aftertaste.
