Talisker 44 Years Old - Forests of the Deep

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.

With support from Talisker, Parley undertook an expedition to one of the world’s largest sea kelp forests near the Cape of Good Hope. The mission yacht explored ‘The Great African Sea Forest’, where the expedition team of scientists, activists, and filmmakers undertook a dive into its depths. On board, the yacht was Talisker cask staves, which were later charred using a small amount of sustainably sourced Scottish sea kelp and stave wood shavings, before finishing the whisky's maturation journey. This exceptional whisky was then finished in these marine oak casks before bottling.
