Matured in a mixture of American and European oak casks for a minimum of 18 years.

Produced at the oldest distillery on the Isle of Skye, Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky has been made by the sea since 1830, with its smell and taste instantly connecting you to its rugged maritime home. Every sip is a taste of the Isle of Skye itself, one of the most remote, windswept yet beautiful landscapes in Scotland. With wonderful sweetness and warmth, intertwined with just a thread of smoke, Talisker 18 Year Old is an award-winning whisky that is rich and soft but still assertive. Named the ‘Best Single Malt Whisky in the World 2007′ at the World Whiskies Awards, Talisker 18 Year Old is a single malt masterpiece. On the nose, rich and fruity Victoria plums, greengages, dried orange peel with some butterscotch and a thread of smoke. This develops towards coal-tar and toffee with the characteristic chilli ‘catch’ in the finish. Serve with a splash of water to bring out the notes of fruit, toffee and smoke. Talisker 18 Year Old makes a perfect gift for connoisseurs looking to explore new depths of flavour amongst smoky island single malt whiskies.

Elegant with fascinating balance between smoke and subtle sweet fruit. Ever changing in the glass and on the palate. – Dave Broom, World Whiskies Awards.
