Talisker 25 Year Old (1994 Vintage / 2020 Bottling) | RARE Refill Hogsheads | 45.8%

This is a must-have for any serious Islay or Island whisky collector: the Talisker 25 Year Old, released as the highly-rated 2020 Limited Edition.

This rare, discontinued bottling is a limited annual release from the iconic Isle of Skye distillery. This specific edition was distilled in 1994 and bottled in 2020, capturing a quarter-century of maturation by the sea.

Unlike many heavily-sherried older malts, this 25-Year-Old is a masterclass in subtlety. It was matured in refill American oak hogsheads, a cask choice that allows the classic, smoky, and peppery maritime character of the Talisker spirit to shine through beautifully.

Bottled at the signature Talisker strength of 45.8% ABV, this is an elegant and complex dram. It delivers the signature wisp of smoke and black pepper, which has softened over time into gentle notes of baked apple, sea salt, and a sophisticated, waxy sweetness. The finish is exceptionally long, warming, and spicy.
