Dive Into the TALISKER Wild Bar 2025
The eagerly awaited TALISKER Wild Bar 2025 is set to make waves in the urban landscape of Tokyo, celebrating the release of the new single malt, TALISKER Wild Blue. Organized by MHD Moët Hennessy Diageo, this unique brand experience will occur on July 18 (Friday) and July 19 (Saturday) at WHAT CAFE in Tennozu Isle. The event invites whiskey lovers to step away from the hustle and bustle of city life and immerse themselves in a sea-inspired environment, with various tasting sessions and food pairings.
As part of the luxurious experience, attendees will be able to sample the newly launched TALISKER Wild Blue, which is crafted with a focus on ocean preservation in collaboration with Blue Marine Foundation. The TALISKER Wild Blue is characterized by its harmonious blend of oceanic aromas, smokiness, and rich fruit flavors—a distinctive product aged in a South African wine cask, which highlights the essence of TALISKER.

To create an atmosphere reminiscent of Skye’s shores, the event venue will feature stunning projection mapping of the sea, bringing to life the beauty of TALISKER’s island heritage.
