Talisker 30 Years Single Malt Scotch Whisky Bottled 2011

Talisker announced a 2021 batch of their classic 30-year-old just a few months ago. It just so happened that I still had a sample of an earlier release in my sample drawer, so I figured this might be a good time to take a look at the Talisker 30 Years bottled in 2011.

Despite it being one of the more touristy distilleries to visit (one of the downsides of its location on the Isle of Skye), I can’t help but be drawn to Talisker whenever I’m in the neighbourhood. Admittedly, that has been a while due to the pandemic, but during earlier trips I always made sure to take a left turn onto the single track road that leads to Carbost, the small home town of Talisker.

It these kind of quirks that allegedly play an important part in the flavour profile of the Talisker 30 Years from 2011. Peppery is one descriptor that is often used for the Talisker spirit, but if that is the result of the distinct setup remains in limbo. Even Dr. Alan Rutherford, someone who knows his fair share about single malt production, isn’t quite sure why the lyne arms bend in such a peculiar way. He attributes it to an inventive copper smith who was experimenting with reflux.

Either way, the Talisker 30 Years is one of the flagship expressions from the distillery. I’ve previously tried old Talisker, going as far back as the 1950s (although I didn’t review that particular expression on my blog), but tasting old Talisker never gets old.

Note

Aroma: Whiffs of dried seaweed, decaying leaves, hemp rope and creosote, this is extremely elegant. There’s pickled lemons, peaches and nectarines too, followed by smoked paprika powder.

Taste: This Talisker 30 Years has a rather fatty mouthfeel. Salty and peppery arrival followed by some iodine and medicinal peat, but there’s an enjoyable sweetness here too, like crème caramel. Also bung cloth and stewed fruits, as well a rum-soaked raisins and a touch of gingerbread.

Finish: Long with some wood smoke, brine and some apricots.
