Mark’s Whisky Ramblings 356: Talisker Distillery Exclusive 2007
Mark Dermul, Belgian whisky blogger, tries a distillery exclusive from Skye. As long as there is a pandemic, Mark will continue his online whisky tastings, the so-called WhisQy Masterclasses. WhisQy with the Q of Quarantine of course. They are quite popular which makes him happy, for it allows him to share drams and stories despite the crisis. In the fifth edition Mark presented a line-up of Talisker which included this Distillery Exclusive from 2017. Some 6.000 bottles were released and the label reveals the following: ‘First matured in refill oak casks, then specially charred American Oak hogsheads, before finally maturing in old European Oak puncheons’.
