The Mac-Talla Feis Ile 2023 is a limited edition whisky from Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers, released to celebrate the 2023 Feis Ile festival held in Islay. This single malt whisky is distilled at an undisclosed Islay distillery and matured exclusively in ex-Pedro Ximenez sherry casks, resulting in a balance of sherried sweetness and smoke. Bottled at a robust strength of 54.6% ABV, this expression is non-chill filtered and naturally colored.
The whisky is drawn from 26 Pedro Ximenez sherry-seasoned casks, creating a complex flavor profile that features jammy sweetness and peat, all perfectly balanced. This limited release is bottled at 54.6% and is limited to just 792 bottles for the UK.
Mac-Talla is a well-known single malt from the famous whisky island of Islay. Morrison Scotch Whisky Distillers is not a new name on Islay, as the Morrison family were once owners of Morrison-Bowmore Distillers and the Bowmore Distillery on the island. With Mac-Talla, Morrison bottles single malts from Islay under its own label.
This particular expression, the Mac-Talla Pedro Ximenez Feis Ile 2023, has been matured in a combination of PX sherry, Oloroso sherry, and bourbon casks before being further aged in first fill Pedro Ximenez casks. This results in a unique and flavorful whisky where the peaty Islay influences are "softened and enriched" by the sweet and fruity influences of the sherry casks.
The whisky has a rich and sweet finish, with salty and savory influences from the sea, all permeated with warming peat smoke. The nose is complex, with a perfect balance between berry jam sweetness, natural fruit flavors, sweet peat smoke, and salty sea influences.
Overall, the Mac-Talla Pedro Ximenez Feis Ile 2023 is a rare and special whisky that is sure to please fans of peaty, sherried whiskies.
The ABV (Alcohol By Volume) of Mac-Talla Feis Ile 2023 MSWD Pedro Ximenez is 54.6%.
