Talisker Surge Single Malt 700ml

🥇 Gold – The Scotch Whisky Masters 2023  
🏅 Travel Retail Masters 2020 — Talisker

Talisker Surge is a bold, richly spiced Single Malt Scotch Whisky from the Talisker Distillery on the Isle of Skye. Created as a Global Travel Retail Exclusive, Surge stands apart as the only Talisker expression specifically matured in first-fill American ex-Bourbon casks, giving the whisky a sweeter, richer profile while retaining Talisker’s signature maritime smoke and peppery spice.

The nose begins surprisingly sweet, with forest berries, crème brûlée, banana, butterscotch and American cream soda, before roasted nuttiness, smoke and chilli spice emerge. On the palate, brioche, banoffee pie and peach lead into maritime notes, fresh ginger, oak smoke and Talisker’s characteristic cracked-black-pepper heat. PR Newswire

The finish is powerful and warming, with chilli, black pepper, beach-bonfire smoke and a final touch of toasted marshmallow. At 45.8% ABV, Surge is noticeably robust while still balancing sweetness, smoke and coastal character.
