Talisker Molten Seas 14yr Special Release 2025
Journey to fiery volcanic frontiers, where ocean meets magma. This 14-year-old Talisker is finished in new American oak casks toasted by the radiant heat of volcanic rocks from the Isle of Skye, imparting eruptive flavor. Born from a land shaped by fire and water, this bold expression channels the wild, elemental spirit of Skye. Sweet-smoky and salt-sprayed spice notes rise like magma from the ocean floor — invigorating, adventurous, and unmistakably Talisker.
NOSE
Mellow yet forward nose, dry in feel, with light prickle and maritime and mineral top notes. As the liquid breathes, the aroma becomes fruitier with a hint of white grape, while light vegetal notes suggest parsnip, and the nose feel becomes drier. A drop of water increases maritime notes and adds peat.
BODY
Medium to full.
PALATE
Smoothly creamy in texture, with a pleasing mellow taste that is markedly sweet and salty, quickly developing a controlled peppery feel, with hints of peat. Smoother and sweeter with water, yet still spicy.
FINISH
Lengthy, drying and lightly peppery, with a kick of spicy pink pepper and a faint smoky memory of peat in the aftertaste. All characters increase with a dash of water.
