Completing the triumvirate of Skye distilleries is the first, and hopefully not only, bottling of Talisker. A notoriously hard-to-secure make for independent bottlers, this is a big, hearty and gutsy example of the famous Skye make.
Distilled in 2011, it started its life in refill hogsheads before moving to a 1st-fill sherry butt, where it spent the second half of its life. This bottling has been released at natural cask strength and is a particularly satisfying example of Talisker.
