Talisker 10 Years
by Talisker · Whisky · Scotland
Talisker 10 Years is a single malt Scotch whisky from the Talisker distillery in Carbost, on the Isle of Skye, the oldest on the island and now owned by Diageo. The story begins in 1830, when brothers Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill leased land from the MacLeod family to set up the distillery.
The whisky is made from peated malted barley and distilled twice in five copper stills, two wash stills and three spirit stills, whose vapors condense in coils immersed in tanks of water (worm tubs). It then matures for at least 10 years in American oak casks. Diageo recommends tasting it neat, and the brand's official store in Brazil also suggests serving it on the rocks.
