Torabhaig Distillery Reserve - Stout Finish
Regulärer Preis
£95.00
Our third and final Distillery Reserve of the year is here, and our second turn with our good friends and neighbours at the Isle of Skye Brewing Co.
Last time, our whisky was finished in casks seasoned by their porter - and sold out fast.
Distilled in 2019, this whisky was first aged in fresh Bourbon casks, before finishing this time in casks seasoned by their stout - their fingerprint on our latest release.
Bottled at cask strength, 57.9%. Just 792 bottles - that's the lot.
General Sale Thursday 10th September 2026 5pm UK Local Time.
Nose: Soft vanilla and creamy custard, layered with crisp green apple and a gentle cereal-biscuit sweetness. A touch of brine and a light, pleasant smoke drift through, adding coastal freshness.
Palate: Sprightly and textured - sour green apple and toasted spice up front, white pepper and cinnamon close behind. A gentle peat smoke builds beneath, meeting sweet bourbon-led vanilla and soft cereal malt.
Finish: Medium-bodied and smooth. Lingering apple freshness and gentle smoke fade into a creamy, malted softness, with a faint echo of roasted cereal.

Makers' Musings
For our Director of Group Whisky Production, Alan Philp, the pleasure of this release was in the pairing of two different, but familiar, approaches.
"One of the things I enjoyed most about this project was that it brought together two Skye producers with a shared commitment to flavour, provenance and patience. Although whisky and brewing are closely related, they approach flavour development in different ways, so working with Isle of Skye Brewery always creates an opportunity to explore something new.
What impressed me most was the balance achieved during maturation. Finishing casks can sometimes dominate a whisky, but that was never the intention here. The goal was to complement rather than overwhelm, using the stout-seasoned wood to add another dimension while retaining the coastal, lightly smoky and fruit-led characteristics that define our whisky."
