| Nose | Sea spray and gentle smoke softened by dried figs, dates and buttery toffee |
| Palate | Dark cherry and ripe peach from the Cognac casks, tangled with wood smoke, sea salt and Talisker's trademark pepper |
| Finish | Long and warming, drying slowly with lingering black pepper and a smoky-fruit glow |
The limited edition Talisker x Parley "Wilder Seas" is the very first Talisker single malt scotch whisky to be finished in French Oak XO Cognac casks.
