This is an 8 year old Talisker single malt from the 2021 Special Release. Talisker stands on the shore of Loch Harport on the Isle of Skye, and this bottling uses selected peated casks. The colour is golden straw with greenish glints, and the body is medium. The nose starts with porridge oats, then moves to seaweed, crystal salt and iodine over mountain smoke. Water softens it and brings out more of the maritime side. The palate is soft and oily, salty and lightly sweet, with a peppery surprise and clear smoke. The finish is long, warm and smoky, with malt lingering in the aftertaste.

About Glenbotal

The idea of Glenbotal came to us naturally: as whisky lovers, we were always on the lookout for new experiences in the whisky world. That’s why we created Glenbotal and became our very own first customers. We buy unique and hard to find spirits from ballots and private collections. Then, we share them with a small circle of friends and people who can appreciate a good dram.
