A malt that Michael Jackson calls “volcanically powerful”, Talisker is one of the finest Island malts around. The late 19th century writer Robert Louis Stevenson (Treasure Island, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde) was a big fan. It is a distinction that it has maintained for over 100 years and the intense peaty, peppery quality is still a hallmark. This is a Malt you build up to, not one you dive into if you are new to Scotch. |
