Talisker ‘Xpedition Oak’ 43 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky 750Ml

To create Xpedition Oak, Talisker sent some barrel staves off on a trans-Atlantic journey with adventurer James Aiken, who single-handedly followed the same route travelled by the teams in Taliskers 3264-mile rowing challenge. These staves were then inserted into 10 casks of whisky aged for more than four decades, creating a unique finishing process that further infused the whisky with the spirit of the sea. Each bottle – of which there are 1830 in homage to the foundation date of the distillery – is packaged with a piece of these staves.
