HTFW Cat. No: LP23172
Cask Strength

A rare and evocative expression from one of Scotland’s youngest distilleries, this 7-Year-Old Torabhaig is a standout independent bottling by the renowned Thompson Bros—known for their unconventional selections and expertly curated casks.

Drawn from a single cask and bottled with minimal intervention, this Thompson Bros release captures Skye’s rugged coastal spirit with vivid clarity. Briny smoke, grilled pineapple, buttery capers, and chalky minerality lead into a palate of sweet peat, sea-salted toffee, and rich, buttery depth. White pepper and charred oak add spice, while smoky caramel and bonfire embers linger on the finish. A final breath of salinity gives it a uniquely maritime kiss—strange, soulful, and unforgettable.

This is a bold, expressive whisky that reflects the Thompson Bros’ sharp eye for characterful spirit and their commitment to bottling whisky with personality, place, and story. A must for fans of smoky island malts and distinctive independent releases.

Rich amber-gold with coppery highlights

Nose

Briny coastal smoke with bright notes of grilled pineapple, buttery capers, and chalky minerality. Maritime saltiness lingers, suggesting a sea-salted breeze over sun-warmed shores.

Palate

Briny smoke and sweet peat unfold on the palate, backed by sea-salted toffee and buttery depth. White pepper and charred oak provide a subtle spice, while smoky caramel and bonfire embers linger into a maritime finish with a final kiss of salinity.

Finish

Bonfire embers burn through a lingering veil of smoky caramel, with sea-salted toffee curling at the edges. The finish carries a crisp maritime salinity, a final breath that threads peat and charred oak into a soulful, sea-kissed echo.

Torabhaig
(Tor-ah-vague) Only the second ever licensed Single Malt Scotch Whisky distillery on the Isle of Skye, only 200 years in the waiting until 2020 resulted in the first single malt whisky produced by Torabhaig distillery. After a painstaking 4 year restoration and build, Torabhaig has been fully operational since January 2017. The distillery was built on the old farmstead at Torabhaig, identified as the perfect location for a small, traditional distillery with the huge added bonus of the purest island spring water available just on its doorstep.
