History and production of Talisker Skye

The Talisker distillery was founded in 1831 on Loch Harport and is the only distillery on the Isle of Skye, which is part of the Inner Hebrides group.

Talisker's single malt whiskies enjoy cult status in the industry and are known for their lush, full-bodied character and strong pepperiness in the finish. It is precisely this sharp note at the end of a sip that makes Talisker's single malt whiskies so impressive and special. The heavily peated malt and the resulting pronounced smokiness further underline the heavy, intense aroma.

The stills at Talisker have a very special shape. The U-shaped Lyne Arms, the specially curved necks of the stills, ensure intensive copper contact with the distillate and increased reflux, thus giving it a unique taste.

The Talisker Skye is a twice distilled single malt whisky that was allowed to mature in freshly burned American white oak barrels. These give the whisky a much more intense barrel aroma than would be the case with used barrels.

Taste of the Talisker Skye

The Talisker Skye has a wonderfully complex aroma. Exotic fruits, especially mango and papaya, black pepper and an earthy, maritime note are supported by the characteristic smokiness. The taste reveals the typical Talisker aromas. Salty sea breeze, beautifully integrated smoke, a strong oak spice and the famous hot pepperiness. These are complemented, however, by mature barrel aromas. Above all, caramel, vanilla and honey. The Talisker Skye can shine with a tremendously long, warming finish. The pepperiness remains, the smoke becomes increasingly sweeter. Overall, the Talisker Skye is a typical representative of the Talisker distillery, which is able to complement the range sensibly with its full barrel aromas and will therefore remain in the memory for a long time.

Talisker Single Malt Whisky Storm 0,7 L, 45,8%

Talisker Single Malt Whisky Storm 0.7 L, 45.8% The history of Talisker The Isle of Skye lies just off the west coast of the Scottish mainland. The Isle of Skye is the largest island in the Inner Hebrides and home to the Scottish malt whisky distillery Talisker. Talisker was founded in 1831 by the two brothers Hugh & Kenneth MacAskill. After the brothers' deaths, the Talisker Distillery was taken over by Donald MacLennan, who was not a good businessman and went bankrupt just a few months after the takeover. Numerous other changes of ownership followed, which were associated with some changes. For example, triple distillation was carried out until 1928, when the double distillation process, which is still used today, was adopted. In 1960, a catastrophe struck when, due to carelessness, fresh distillate overflowed and ignited in the coal-fired ovens used at the time. The production facility then burned down completely, but was rebuilt true to the original. Talisker is now owned by the international spirits company Diageo and produces around 2,000,000 L of new make annually with two wash stills and three spirit stills. The Talisker Single Malt Whisky Storm The Talisker Single Malt Whisky Storm is one of Talisker's newest bottlings and is bottled without an age statement. By using slightly younger distillates, the Talisker Storm is supposed to have a strong, stormy character and be reminiscent of the wild sea on the cliffs of the Isle of Skye. In contrast to the 10-year-old Talisker, the Storm is much more heavily peated, which you can immediately feel on the nose and palate. Nevertheless, the typical peppery character of Talisker comes through very well and makes the Storm unmistakable. The aftertaste is surprisingly long for such a young single malt whisky, which is probably due to the use of oak barrels of different ages. In addition, fine maritime notes and nuances of dried fruit can be perceived. If you like Talisker whiskies, you will definitely like the Storm!

Talisker Single Malt Whisky Dark Storm 1,0 L, 45,8%
Talisker Dark Storm Single Malt Scotch Whisky 1L 45,8%

Talisker Single Malt Whisky Dark Storm 1.0L 45.8% The history of the Talisker distillery The Talisker distillery was founded in 1830 by the brothers Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill and is now one of the most famous distilleries in Scotland. Talisker is part of the whisky region of the Islands and is located on the Isle of Skye. Talisker is the only distillery on the Isle of Skye and, as with many other single malt whisky distilleries, Talisker experienced numerous changes of ownership, especially in the first decades after its founding. The most difficult days for Talisker, however, were in November 1960, when a fire caused by carelessness reduced the distillery to rubble and ashes. Just two years later, however, Talisker was faithfully rebuilt in order to preserve the original taste of Talisker. Talisker now produces around two million litres of distillate annually with two wash stills and three spirit stills. The Talisker Dark Storm Talisker enjoyed great success with the Talisker Single Malt Whisky Dark Storm 1.0L 45.8%. It is therefore not surprising that Talisker has now brought a corresponding successor onto the market with the Dark Storm. The Talisker Dark Storm whisky was stored in very heavily charred oak barrels, which gives it special smoky notes. The smoky taste also comes from the water from the springs on the Cnoc am Speirag, which are used for the Talisker Dark Storm. This almost reddish-brown water flows over peat and therefore takes on its strong, intense taste. On the nose, the Talisker has a slight spiciness and strong smoky notes. On the palate, the Talisker Dark Storm is also very strong and intense. Surprisingly, a pronounced sweetness and notes of black currants can also be detected on the palate. The aftertaste is relatively long and memorable. If you like smoky whiskeys with a slightly higher alcohol content, the Talisker Dark Storm has 45.8%, you will love this special bottling. We recommend enjoying the Talisker Dark Storm after a hard day at work or as a digestif in front of the fireplace.

Talisker 11 Years Special Release 2022 Single Malt Whisky 0.7L 55.1% This special Talisker 11 Years Special Release 2022 Single Malt Whisky 0.7L 55.1% from the Talisker Distillery matured for 11 years in first-fill bourbon casks with lightly peated stock. This maturation not only gives it its characteristic charm, but also a multitude of taste nuances. The legend surrounding this whisky is as fascinating as the whisky itself: One stormy night, the tidal current penetrated Talisker Bay with extraordinary force and brought a glowing creature from the depths of the sea. Its light outshone the darkness and was carried by the storm to the Talisker distillery. The bouquet of this Talisker 11 Years Special Release 2022 whisky begins with a hint of sea salt, accompanied by smoke and dried seaweed, which gains intensity over time. The taste is slightly oily on the tongue, with the pleasantly spicy-sweet smoke accompanied by a wonderful fruit note reminiscent of an orchard by the sea. The fine salt note is accompanied by a strong hint of chili that awaits you. The finish is slightly smoky and pleasantly long-lasting on the palate, with an appealing spiciness. For a milder experience, 2-3 drops of water in the glass are enough.
