Talisker has released a new addition to its range, Talisker Skye. The SKU has been designed to celebrate the brand’s standing as the Isle of Skye’s only single malt whisky.

Reflecting the softer notes of Talisker, the liquid has been made from a combination of hand selected toasted and refill American oak casks, as well as a small proportion of bourbon casks.

Stuart Harrington, Talisker’s distillery manager, comments: “We’re very proud to welcome Talisker Skye to our family of distinctive whiskies. We’re extremely passionate about both our whiskies and home, the Isle of Skye, and see this whisky as the perfect way of celebrating this. Our master blenders worked tirelessly to create an expression that embodies Skye’s wild beauty – and we’re delighted with the end product; it’s Skye in a bottle.”

Talisker Skye has been created to deliver an innovative, smoky sweet proposition to the range, whilst maintaining the maritime edge that is a hallmark of the Talisker brand.

Talisker Skye will be available nationwide promotionally priced at  $65.00 through introduction, with a RRP $85.99.

Talisker is distributed by Diageo Australia.
