Talisker 44
Year Old Forests Of The Deep the 2nd
release Expedition Oak Series and the
oldest Talisker release to date.
 Talisker
44 Year Old Forests Of The Deep is the
2nd release in this Expedition Oak
Series, it was created as a reflection
on the power and beauty of our oceans.
Only 1,997 bottles of this whisky will
be released globally, inspired by an
expedition led by Parley for the Oceans,
Talisker’s partner in ocean
conservation, to one of the world’s
largest sea kelp forests near the Cape
of Good Hope, where a team of
scientists, activists and filmmakers
undertook a dive into the depths of The
Great African Sea Forest.
Talisker 44 Year Old Forests Of The Deep
is undoubtedly a rare expression of
Talisker not only because of its 44 year
of maturation making it the oldest
Talisker release to date but also
because of how it was matured.
Talisker cask staves were on board the
yacht, which were later charred using a
small amount of sustainably sourced
Scottish sea kelp and stave wood
shavings. The whisky’s maturation
journey was finished in these 10 marine
oak casks before bottling.
The 10 marine charred casks produced
only 1,997 bottles which were bottled at
49.1% ABV and have a RRP of £3,800.
You will find the Talisker 44 Year Old
Forests Of The Deep
available from specialist online whisky retailers such
as
The Whisky Exchange,

and

Talisker 44 Year Old Forests Of The Deep Review
|
Producer's Tasting Notes:
Nose:
A mellow nose overall, with a peppery
prickle that yields slowly to rich
maritime top notes with traces of
seaweed, salt crystals and warmed oak,
over sweeter wafts of lemon zest and
toffee. Beneath these scents lie
intriguing aromas, layered as
brine-licked sea air and a distant beach
bonfire.
Taste:
A big, wonderfully oily-smooth texture
and umami-rich taste. Enjoy tingling
Szechuan peppery warmth with a hint of
sweetness.
Finish:
Long with soft traces of candle wax as a
sweet chilli-pepper warmth suffuses the
palate, becoming mouth-cooling if water
is added.
