Mac-Talla Fèis Ile 2023 Tasting Notes

Official tasting notes

Colour: Deep garnet.

Nose: Maritime smoke, burnt toffee and stewed berries.

Palate: The influence of PX sherry casks brings a rich, fruity sweetness and added structure to this smoky islay malt. Expect notes of bonfire, rum and raisin, and marmalade.

Ed's review

Colour: Deep amber, like loose-leaf tea. Thick and viscous in the glass, with slow-developing tears.

Nose: Honey-glazed ham gently smoked on the BBQ. Red currents, blackberries and plums. A rich earthy character. Cinnamon, paprika and nutmeg.

Palate: Medium to full mouthfeel. Initial caramel fades into spice. Gentle peat smoke with a little coastal salinity, like warming your soul next to a beach campfire. Bacon with redeye gravy. Rich fruits, like a dark berry compote. Alcohol is well integrated.

Finish: Long finish. A bright burst of spice and peat wakes you up. Beach pebbles and a touch of lemon citrus.

About this MacTalla whisky

This is MacTalla's Fèis Ìle limited edition release for 2023. It's a beautiful interpretation of Islay's classic maritime peat character, with the PX casks bringing lovely sweet fruit notes.

Meet the family

The Morrisons

The Morrison's are one of the oldest whisky families in Scotland. The dynasty started in the 18th century when they were grocers. Over the centuries since, they have grown into whisky brokers, blenders, and distillers. Today they are known as Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers and are led by Jamie and Brian Morrison.

Jamie and Brian release whiskies under three brands. Old Perth is their sherried range, and Mac-Talla is their Islay range, and then Carn Mor releases small batch whiskies from a range of distilleries.
