Today we are filming live from the Talisker Single Malt Scotch Whisky Distillery. • After a number of false starts, the Talisker distillery was founded in 1830 by Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill. It opened at Carbost in 1831 after they acquired the lease of Talisker House from Clan MacLeod. In 1879 it was purchased for £1,810 (equivalent to £195,800 in 2021) by a firm which became known as R. Kemp Co. when it had a production capacity of 700 gallons per week. • The distillery was rebuilt 1880–87 and extended in 1900. By 1894 the output was up to 2,000 gallons per week. In 1895 the business was converted into a limited liability company with Thomas Mackenzie as managing partner, but the shares were not offered to the public. • Talisker was acquired by Distillers Company in 1925 and is now part of Diageo. • The distillery was rebuilt again in 1960 after a stillhouse fire completely destroyed the distillery. The distillery operates five stills; two wash stills and three spirit stills. All the stills use worm tubs (condensing coils) rather than a modern condenser, which are believed to give the whisky a fuller flavour (itself an indication of higher sugar content). During this early period, the whisky was produced using a triple distilling method, but changed to the more conventional double distilling in 1928. After the 1960 fire, five exact replicas of the original stills were constructed to preserve the original Talisker flavour. In 1972 the stills were converted to steam heating and the maltings floor was demolished. Talisker's water comes from springs directly above the distillery via a network of pipes and wells. • WATCH NEXT: • 🥃 Whisky Tour: Balvenie Whisky Distillery Tour - • Whisky Tour: Balvenie Distillery • 🥃 Whisky Tour: Glenfarclas Distillery - • Whisky Tour: Glenfarclas Distillery • 🥃 Whisky Tour: CARDHU Whisky - • Whisky Tour - CARDHU Distillery • 🥃 Whisky Tour: BenRiach Single malt scotch whisky Distillery - • Whisky Tour: BenRiach Distillery • • Come Say HI! • Website: • https://www.deathandtaxesbar.com.au/ • Instagram • https://www.instagram.com/deathandtax... • Facebook • / deathandtaxesbrisbane
