Talisker 30 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky

The roots of Talisker stretch back to 1825, when Hugh MacAskill was granted a lease of Talisker House whereupon he and his brother, Kenneth, would establish a distillery five years later. The distillery in Carbost, Isle of Skye, quickly drew the affections of many, including Robert Louis Stevenson, who lovingly dropped the label’s name in his poem, “The Scotsman’s Return From Abroad.”

A finely-tuned balance of sweetness from plump berries and an enjoyable peppery heat. Its age shines through.
