Talisker Port Ruighe InselnTalisker is the oldest distillery on the Isle of Skye. It was founded in 1831 by brothers Hugh and Kenneth MacAskill in Carbost on the shores of Loch Harport. The Talisker House estate, a few kilometres to the west in the mountains, gave the distillery its name. After a chequered history with many changes of ownership, Talisker now belongs to the spirits producer Diageo.
