Few whiskies tell the story of their origin better than Talisker. Double matured in port casks, this malt is a toast to the Scottish traders who braved the high seas and were instrumental in the foundation of the port wine trade.
Port Ruighe, pronounced ‘Portree’ is the Gaelic spelling of the once-bustling trading port on Skye. The port finish combines Talisker’ s powerful maritime character with succulent sweet notes of rich berry fruits for a superb taste experience.
Talisker Port Ruighe was made for sipping neat. An essential gift for lovers of Talisker and smoky island single malt whiskies.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with a coppery glow and ruby-tinged edges, a rich, sun-warmed hue that hints at the port cask finish and Talisker’s maritime character.
Nose
Sea-salted air and Talisker’s coastal peat lift a smoky core, brightened by port-finished fruit. Ripe raspberry and blackberry mingle with fig and plum, glazed with caramel-vanilla sweetness. A touch of toffee and coastal pepper round out the aroma, leaving a lingering maritime invitation.
Palate
Coastal smoke and sea-salt rise on the palate, softened by the port finish into lush berry sweetness. Blackberry and raspberry mingle with cocoa and dried fruit, delivering a fruit-forward core wrapped in Talisker’s maritime heat. The finish is long, smoky, and gently warming, with peppery spice and a lingering briny sweetness.
Finish
Long, maritime and smoky, the finish carries sea-salt and pepper into a velvet cloak of port sweetness. Rich berry fruit lingers, edged by spice and a touch of char, while coastal minerals fade into a refined, lingering warmth.
