Mac-Talla Fèis Ile 2024 Tasting Notes

Official tasting notes

Colour: Golden.

Nose: Gentle peat smoke with floral, bright and fresh notes.

Palate: Tropical and juicy. chargrilled pineapples and papaya with subtle bonfire embers.

Ed's review

Nose: Spiced pineapple in syrup with rum-soaked overripe bananas. Gentle peat smoke on the beach next to the ocean.

Palate: Medium to full mouthfeel. Tropical fruits meet Islay's peat-smoke malt. More spiced pineapple, roasted over the barbecue and sprinkled with brown sugar. Some coastal salinity, backed by oak. Opens up with a drop of water.

Finish: Tropical fruit, coastal smoke, and bright spice. Warming and alive, leaving me ready for another sip.

About this MacTalla whisky

Mac-Talla’s Feis Ile 2024 Limited Edition is a tropical and coastal whisky matured in rum casks from Cruzan Distillery for over 5 years, after initially developing in hogsheads for a period of 10 years. These ex-virgin oak casks have only been used for rum prior to MacTalla’s whisky being tipped into them, giving the liquid a beautifully tropical flavour profile.
