Beverage Testing Institute: Rated 89 • Brilliant orange-gold. Rich seaweed and peat aromas. Moderately full-bodied, with silky texture and sweet malty notes upfront that develop into a full- fledged salty, peaty character through the finish. Outstanding balance. A 10 year old and the only malt produced on Skye. Its seaweedy, smoky nose and sweet maltiness is perfectly complimented by its spicy, long finish.

From the western shores of the Isle of Skye, in the tall shadows of the Cuillin Hills, comes a single malt like no other. An alluring, sweet, full-bodied spirit with a warming afterglow so easy to enjoy yet, like Skye itself, so hard to leave. Time has mellowed but not tamed this powerful 18 year old Talisker, made beside Loch Harport in the shadow of the Cuillin range. A rich, sweet nose introduces familiar, smoky maritime aromas. Full-bodied, this smooth malt opens sweetly, then becomes more assertive, with a whiff of smoke. It has an unmistakeable, richly warming finish, more subtle here than in the 10 year old.
