Talisker x Parley Wilder Seas 700ml

Talisker Wilder Seas is the latest release from the oldest Skye distillery, and the first to have been finished in French oak XO Cognac casks. Most importantly, it is a collaboration with Parley for the Oceans, an ocean conservation not-for-profit. It is also the first release that comes in 100% recycled glass made from biofuel. Each bottle represents a £3 donation to Parley to support ocean preservation.

Tasting Notes

Appearance: A glorious, shining deep amber with reddish lights. The rich colour of rosewood or a freshly opened horse chestnut.

Nose: Mild and dry in feel, yet rich overall. Tight-packed top notes of fruit and mal suggest malt bread with sultanas, dates and dried figs. Beneath them, a light mineral hint of chalk leads into rousing maritime notes of brine, salt crystals and ship’s rails in a high sea, all on a lightly fruity, winey base, with a hint o pipe tobacco. Adding a little water brings up a smoky note.

Body: Medium to full.

Palate: The creamy-smooth mouthfeel introduces a big taste that starts richly sweet then quickly becomes salty, smoky and fruity, with lush, sweet hints of sultana and fig mid-palate wrapped in rising peppery spice and smokiness. Rich and intense at natural strength, it becomes slightly sweeter, fruitier (suggesting ripe fugs again) and spicier if water is added. Finish: Long, warming and lightly drying, with a familiar late peppery catch and a most appealing smoky-fruity aftertaste.
