About this bottle

An incredible bottle of a 17 years old Talisker. This single malt was distilled in February 1940 and filled into Sherry casks that were laid to rest for at least 17 years until it was bottled in March 1957. The label has an interesting quote: "It's a fine speerit the Talisker, there's no a petter made". We can only imagine the tasting of a Talisker from that period... Bottled at 40% ABV, especially for Wolverhampton & Dudley Breweries Ltd.

Excise duties

Added for delivery inside the EU

Excise duty is a tax on alcohol, separate from VAT, and it rises with the alcohol in the bottle. Each EU country sets its own rates, so if you live in the EU and win this lot, the duty of the destination country is added to your invoice. This is not optional.

Buying from outside the EU? Then no excise duty is added: the customs of your country take care of it.
