Distillery History: Nestled on the shores of Loch Harport, the Talisker Distillery has a long and storied history dating back to its establishment in 1830. Located on the Isle of Skye, an island renowned for its dramatic coastline and rugged beauty, the distillery draws inspiration from its surroundings, infusing each bottle of Talisker with the very essence of the untamed Scottish landscape.
Whisky Production: Talisker 10 Year Old is meticulously crafted using time-honoured methods, showcasing the expertise and dedication of the distillery’s master craftsmen. Made from the finest malted barley, the whisky undergoes a traditional fermentation process before being distilled in copper pot stills. The spirit is then matured for a decade in a combination of American oak ex-bourbon casks, which impart richness and sweetness, and European oak refill casks, which contribute complexity and depth. This careful maturation process results in a whisky that is a true reflection of the rugged coastal environment in which it is produced.
