  • Skye is a fresher, brighter cousin to the Talisker 10 Year Old, with fresh citrus bursts and underlying sweetness, matured in a combination of refill and toasted American oak casks for depth of flavour. To learn more and for a guided tasting experience, just ask Alexa ‘open Talisker tasting’
  • Talisker is a highly awarded family of single malt whiskies, with Skye receiving Gold at the International Wine and Spirits Competition 2015
  • Founded by the intrepid MacAskill brothers in 1830, Talisker is a whisky for adventurers, those happiest close to nature. It makes the perfect gift for adventurous wild spirits looking for a good way to start exploring smoky island whiskies
