TALISKER 10 YEAR OLD

TALISKER 10 YEAR OLD

Single malt.

Even by today’s standards Talisker distillery is a bit out of the way, nestled on the shore of Loch Harport on the west coast of the isle of Skye. This might explain why, in its early days, the distillery frequently changed hands, with owners struggling to turn a profit. It wasn’t until owner Roderick Kemp oversaw construction of a pier in the late 19th century, allowing much easier access for the boats that transported the casks to the mainland, that the distillery’s fortunes began to improve.

Despite a minor stumbling block in 1960 when the distillery burned down and had to be completely rebuilt, it has grown to become one of the most recognisable single malt brands in the world.

This is an older style Talisker from the early 2000s.

45.8% ABV / 70cl
