Region

Owner

Diageo


Founded

1830 | Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill


Diageo has put a lot of effort into its Skye gem over the past 15 years. Talisker is now one of the most visited distilleries in Scotland and boasts a very impressive visitor centre. The unusually shaped line arm off the stills gives Talisker a distinctive peppery character which is very prominent in every expression. Out of Diageo’s port folio, Talisker has the most core releases with 8 and plenty more travel retail exclusives.
