Talisker 43 Year Old Xpedition Oak: The Atlantic Challenge Whisky

$2,216.25

After the barley has been mashed, it is fermented in the distillery's wooden washbacks before being twice distilled through Talisker's copper-pot stills. The stills are equipped with unique swan-shaped lye pipes and worm tubs. As a result of this configuration, a portion of the vapor during distillation condenses before reaching the cooler, and runs back into the still for redistillation. This process gives Talisker Single Malt Whisky its signature, full-bodied flavor profile. Talisker Xpedition Oak was literally made by the sea, as the casks used for maturation were put together from staves that have crossed the Atlantic on a 3264-mile voyage. Only 1,830 bottles were produced, corresponding with the year that Talisker was founded.

Size: 750mL
Proof: 99.4 (49.7% ABV)

Tasting Notes

You can expect mellow aromas of gentle spice, fruit, apple, and a touch of aromatic wax. The palate is rich, smooth, and vibrant with a pleasant fruity sweetness and brine notes. Finishes long and sweet with a distinct chili pepper note.
