Talisker Distillery[edit | edit source]
Talisker Distillery is a renowned Scotch whisky distillery located on the Isle of Skye, one of the most scenic islands in Scotland. The distillery is owned by Diageo, a multinational alcoholic beverages company.
History[edit | edit source]
The Talisker Distillery was founded in 1830 by Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill. The distillery was rebuilt in 1880 after a devastating fire. Despite several changes in ownership and numerous challenges, the distillery has continued to produce its distinctive single malt Scotch whisky.
Production[edit | edit source]
Talisker Distillery is known for its unique peat-smoked flavour, which is a result of the traditional distillation process. The distillery uses copper pot stills and oak casks for maturation. The water used in the production comes from the nearby Cnoc nan Speireag (Hawk Hill).
Products[edit | edit source]
Talisker Distillery produces a range of single malt whiskies. The core range includes Talisker 10 Year Old, Talisker 18 Year Old, and Talisker Distiller's Edition. Each of these whiskies has its own unique taste and character, but all share the distinctive peaty and maritime character of Talisker.
