Talisker 8 Year Old Cask Strength is a bold Isle of Skye single malt bottled at cask strength after eight years in oak. It carries Talisker’s signature coastal character with sea-salt smoke, maritime brine, and a peppery bite, layered over malt and citrus notes. A powerful, true-to-style dram that rewards deliberate sipping and a measured splash of water to unlock depth.
