Talisker 1978 Aged 41 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky – Bodega Series 2 (700ml)
Volume: 700ml ABV: 50.7% Age: 41 Years Old Country: Scotland
Talisker distillery is an Island single malt Scotch whisky distillery based in Carbost, Scotland on the Isle of Skye. This Scottish West Coast distillery is operated by Diageo who also own distilleries such as Lagavulin, Cardhu, Cragganmore, Mortlach and many more. The distillery was founded in 1830 but rebuilt in 1880. The malted barley used in production comes from Muir of Ord and Talisker has an unusual feature, swan neck lye pipes. A loop in the pipes takes the vapour from the stills to the worm tubs so some of the alcohol already condenses before it reaches the cooler. It then runs back into the stills and is distilled again. Talisker now has an output of three and a half million litres of spirit per annum.
This Talisker comes from the second release in the Bodega series from the Isle of Skye distillery. First distilled in 1978 in American oak barrels then it was given a finishing period in six Manzanilla sherry casks over 100 years old from Delgado Zuleta, one of Jerez’s oldest sherry producers. After 41 years in oak it was bottled at 50.7% abv and only 2000 bottles were available for worldwide distribution. A very limited and sought after single malt whisky indeed.
*Very limited availability and only one per customer allowed. Comes in a very, very stylish presentation box and sturdy carry case.*
