Talisker
Talisker is the oldest Single Malt Scotch Whisky distillery made by the sea on the shores of the Isle of Skye, one of the most remote, rugged, yet beautiful landscapes in Scotland. Few whiskies tell the story of their origin better than Talisker. Its smell and taste instantly connect the drinker with the rugged environment – like a warm welcome from a wild sea. It’s a powerhouse; challenging but adored; once discovered rarely left.

A beautifully structured Talisker, this rare 25-year-old single malt has great depth and tastes magnificent with its smooth flavours, subtle smokiness and hints of sweet caramel. Maturation happens in oak casks for a minimum of 25 years, that impart lingering flavours of American bourbon and Spanish sherry. A rare limited release like Talisker 25 Year Old makes a memorable and special gift for lovers of Talisker and smoky island single malt whiskies.

Expert Reviews

Insights from some of the best in the business

Comes across initially to me as reserved, perhaps even elegant for a Talisker. Soothing too, with an oily texture. Quite fruity (orange, tangerine, apricot), perhaps even floral, with a delicate pastry sweetness. Then the more traditional Talisker notes kick in -- brine, seaweed, warming pepper -- repeated in the finish. A high-quality Talisker; albeit a bit reserved at times. I love the oily, viscous texture.
