Directors Tactical Selection Skye 25yo
From WhIsKi
Old Malt Cask (Douglas Laing)
25yo: Distilled December 1980; Bottled July 2006
Skye (unnamed, but must be Talisker).
Sherry Cask.
One of 569 bottles.
Diluted to 50%
I very good whisky, but disappointing for the price (£80). Very simple: strong peppery peat balanced by delicate sweet and salt. None of the overpowering fruitcake other sherry casks produce. Lacks the complexity of Talisker's own excellent 25yo.
