Tasting Talisker 35 years old Diageo Special Release 2012

By Miguel in Tasting , Talisker

“Extremely good Talisker. The oldest ever released by the distillery and a very different proposal of the Talisker 30 years old. If it wasn't so stupidly expensive I would buy it”

92
Talisker 35 Year Old - 2012 Release
A whopping 16th entry for Talisker in the annual Diageo Special Releases, this time the oldest bottling offered by the distillery so far - a 35 year old whisky, distilled in 1977 and matured in a mixture of refill American and European oak casks.
TODO: Check if strength is 54.6% or 54%

This dram has a fino-like color.

Nose (92): more than average. peat, honey, pepper, salt, floral, candies.

Palate (93): powerful, oily. peat, honey, wood, pepper, vanilla, spices, floral, heather.

Finish (92): longer than average. peat, floral, citrus.

So based on other whiskies I have already tasted I rate this Talisker 35 Year Old - 2012 Release with 92 points over 100.
