Description

Born of the sea, Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky 44-Year-Old: Forests of the Deep was created as a reflection on the power and beauty of our oceans. Only 1,997 bottles of this whisky were released globally, inspired by an expedition led by Parley for the Oceans, Talisker's partner in ocean conservation, to one of the world's largest sea kelp forests near the Cape of Good Hope. This rare whisky has been nurtured for over four decades in ex-bourbon casks and finished in marine oak casks, which were charred using sustainably-farmed Scottish sea kelp and stave wood shavings.
