Description
Distilled during the hot summer of 1976, this one-off 46-year-old Talisker was filled in a single cask where extended maturation developed toffee, white pepper, and salted dark chocolate notes alongside volcanic minerality. The unusually hot distillation created greater copper contact, lending subtle fruit and spice layers rarely found in the distillery's standard expressions. Bottled at 50.9% ABV, it combines Talisker's core peppery character with the sophistication of five decades in wood. A singular vintage for collectors and those curious about how production conditions shape a whisky's final character.
