Talisker Fiskavaig 1977 Glenkeir Treasures 27 Year Old

For a long time, Talisker was the sole distillery on Scotland’s iconic Isle of Skye. Renowned for the quality of its output, the distillery has rarely changed hands, joining DCL (now Diageo) back in 1916. Despite this, releases were not the most common. An 8 year old was bottled officially and Gordon & MacPhail produced what are now classic and sought after vintage bottlings under official license from the distillery. When a 10 year old expression became a founding pillar of United Distillers’ Classic Malts range, the popularity of the distillery exploded, and it is now one of the most revered and exported in Scotland. As such, independent bottlings like this are scarce, and particularly sought after when they appear.

Distilled whisky was distilled on The Isle of Skye in October 1977, when Talisker was the only distillery on the Island, and bottled from a single cask in April 2005 by spirit merchants, The Whisky Shop as part of their Glenkeir Treasures series.
