Talisker 1989-1999 Friends Of the Classic Malts

Island Single Malt Scotch Whisky 
Distillery Bottling 70cl / 59.3%

A special edition cask strength Talisker 1989 bottled for the Friends of the Classic Malts club back in 1999 at its phenomenally potent natural cask strength of 59.3%.

Talisker's whiskies today generally seem much more polished affairs than in the past, with the distillery having dialled back the naked savagery that many of their older bottlings displayed so unapologetically. This uncompromising monster is a case in point, a feral dram with sharp, earthy, salty, spicy aromas and flavours delivered on a palate bursting with a remarkable raw power - making this Friends of the Classic Malts Talisker a fan service bottling of the very best kind.
