Description

The Bodega Series’ exploration of a unique relationship with the leading Sherry region uses only the oldest and finest stocks of whisky in the Talisker stores, allowing for a release of only 2,000 bottles per release.

This wonderful relationship with one of the world’s most prestigious Sherry producers is made even more special by the incredibly symmetry between Talisker and Delgado Zuleta as they are both defined as being ‘made by the sea’.

The Talisker Bodega 41 Year Old was distilled in 1978 and bottled in 2019, making it the oldest whisky ever released from the Isle of Skye, from the oldest distillery on the Isle of Skye.

The 41 Year Old whisky, made by the sea in Scotland, has been expertly finished in Manzanilla Sherry casks from Delgado Zuleta. Bottled at cask strength of 50.0% ABV to allow the drinker to experience the whisky in its purest, most powerful form.

The wonderful symmetry between Talisker and Delgado Zuleta with their coastal locations is further accentuated by this expression using the Manzanilla casks.

Manzanilla Sherry is from the coastal town of Sanclur de Barrameda, which forms one of the three corners of the Sherry Triangle, and is defined by the coast and its salty brine flavours in the same way that Talisker is, forming a unique and powerful flavour combination.

Tasting Notes

Nose: A mild nose-feel, dry and maritime overall, with light prickle from the sheer character of the spirit. The aroma presents salty-spicy top-notes and a sweet, mellow fruity middle with hints of slightly caramelised apple crumble. 

Palate:  Great to drink at natural strength, when the taste seamlessly moves from sweetness through saltiness to pepper, smoke, fire and brimstone and is delicious to drink straight. The mouth-filling texture is rich and smooth. The taste starts with the sweetness of soft fudge, then a balancing saltiness gradually yeilds to a peppery heat that lasts and lasts. 

Finish:  Long, hot, smoky and delicious, with mouth-cooling Sichuan pepper in the aftertaste amid lingering threads of peat smoke. Adding water reduces the heat while lengthening the finish.
