Talisker Port Ruighe - 70cl/45.8%

Talisker Port Ruighe Whisky is a distinctive single malt Scotch that expertly combines the rugged maritime character of Talisker with the rich, sweet notes of port cask finishing. Originating from the Isle of Skye, this whisky embodies the wild beauty and untamed spirit of its birthplace. "Port Ruighe," pronounced "Portree," honors the main port on Skye and reflects the whisky’s dual maturation process, which marries traditional American and European oak casks with deeply seasoned port wine casks.

The result is a complex and rewarding dram with a nose full of ripe plums, dark berries, and a hint of sea salt, alluding to its coastal origins. On the palate, Talisker Port Ruighe offers a harmonious blend of smoky peat, peppery spice, and luscious fruit sweetness, with notes of rich chocolate and toffee. The port cask finishing adds layers of depth and a silky smooth texture, enhancing the whisky’s natural warmth and character.

The finish is long and satisfying, with lingering peat smoke and sweet fruit, making it a perfect choice for those who appreciate a bold yet balanced whisky. Ideal for sipping neat, this whisky offers a taste journey that captures the essence of Skye's dramatic landscapes and seafaring heritage.
