The first in a series, also described as one of Talisker’s most valuable expressions to date - and quite likely the oldest, topping the 35 year old by a fair stretch. Matured in refill American oak barrels before being finished in the ‘special and unusual’ 40-year-old amontillado Sherry casks sourced from Delgado Zuleta, a key supplier of casks to the distillery in the early 20th century, this is a re-imagined whisky attempting to recreate the flavours of yester-year.

Global brand ambassador, Donald Colville said the Delgado Zuleta expression, and the Bodega Series as a whole, embodied "the wildness of Skye with the warmth of Spain’." He adds, "It is a magnificent, lion-hearted old Talisker, rich with the sophistication of age, yet still full of life and retaining the make's familiar maritime and spicy character."

2000 bottles, presented in carved oak cases have been made available.
Expect aromas and flavours of white grape and sultanas, alongside Talisker's characteristic sea salt and smoke. 50% Alc./Vol. We have two bottles only to sell.
