TALISKER - Wilder Seas x Parley - Limited Edition - 48.6%
Talisker Distillery is based in Carbost , Scotland on the Isle of Skye . It dates back to 1831, when the MacAskill brothers opened their distillery at Talisker House in the settlement of Carbost on the west coast of Skye. The building was a gift from the Chief of Clan MacLeod and the clan has remained associated with the distillery. The MacAskills sold the business in 1825 and it became part of the Distillers Company. Today, Talisker is an integral part of Diageo's Classic Malt range. It has five stills in operation, producing around 2 million liters of alcohol a year and the water comes from springs in the Cuillin Hills, which overlook the distillery. Due to Skye's relatively poor soils, barley is grown in the area known as the Muir of Ord on the mainland 20km west of Inverness.
This limited edition Talisker is a collaboration with Parley , a non-profit environmental organization that focuses on protecting the oceans . It was founded in 2012 by Cyrill Gutsch to raise global awareness of the threat of marine plastic pollution while catalyzing solutions through the creation of a range of premium materials made from intercepted and recycled marine plastic debris. The whiskey has been refined in barrels that have contained Cognac XO .
