Description
Legend has it that, before tides of unusual power in Talisker Bay, a creature emerged from the depths of the sea, whose glow illuminated the marine night. Its luminosity was such that it reached the Talisker distillery, bathing the new distillate with its light, which remained in the whiskey until the characteristic smoky flavor gave way to a glow of exceptionally rare spicy sweetness. On the shores of Loch Harport, on the western border of the untamed Isle of Skye, such tales are taken seriously.
Either way, since 1830, this 'forged by the sea' whiskey has cemented its marine essence on Skye. With a sweet, salty, intense and smoky personality, as elemental as the earth, the sea or the storm, this whiskey is a tribute to free spirits 'Made by the sea'. Light is reflected in every sip of this liqueur, displaying a deep golden glow and salty, smoky notes that evoke a beach bonfire, providing an authentic maritime experience. Matured in previously used bourbon barrels, it provides layers of intense flavor and a subtly oily texture, along with a sweet, smoky, spicy, salty and fruity flavor, reminiscent of an orchard touched by the sea mist. The presence of peat culminates in a long and spicy finish, similar to chili. This legendary Talisker possesses an ethereal beauty.
