Talisker THE WILD BLUE Single Malt Special Release 2025 48,2% Vol. 0,7l

With Talisker The Wild Blue - Special Release 2025, the traditional distillery from the Isle of Skye presents a unique single malt Scotch whisky that captures the maritime heritage and wild nature of the coastal landscape in an expressive dram. This limited edition is part of Diageo's annual Special Releases Collection and has been bottled at 48.2% alcohol by volume - not chill-filtered to preserve the full aromatic experience.

"The Wild Blue" symbolizes the unbridled power of the sea that has always inspired Talisker. The combination of the typical salty sea breeze, smoky spice and a hint of sweetness reflects the power of the storms over the Scottish islands. The whisky is matured in carefully selected casks, which give it additional complexity, depth and structure - and ensure its unique character within the Talisker range.

Tasting notes:

Color: Light gold with a maritime shimmer.
Nose: Fresh and lively with sea salt, white pepper, green apple, lemon zest and a fine smokiness.
Taste: Powerful and salty, with chilli-like spiciness, smoky oak, citrus fruits, honey and slightly peaty notes.
Finish: Long, dry and spicy with maritime notes, charred wood and peppery warmth.

This expressive Talisker unfolds its full potential neat at room temperature or with a few drops of water to better open up the complex aromas. The contrast between the salty freshness and the smoky, peppery depth is particularly exciting. Perfect for fans of classic coastal whiskies and collectors of special editions who want to experience the rugged terroir of the Isle of Skye in a glass.
