- Whisky expert, Jim Murray
- “Isle of Skye 8 year Matured Scotch Whiskey - awarded Silver Medal”

- “What a surprise! Really thick and malty for a blend and also nicely mature for 8 years old. Great balance with the island aggressiveness tamed by a rich, malty elegance. Delicious honey, toasted oak, firm peat, dark chocolate and glazed citrus meld nicely with the malt, leading to honeyed, lightly peppered finish. Very enjoyable!”
- John Hansell, Advanced Malt Advocate Magazine
"I discovered Isle of Skye at the Whisky Shop in San Francisco. Two things jumped out at me immediately, first the price is amazingly reasonable and the name of Skye. I know that there’s only one distillery on Skye and that any blend with that name was likely to have a high Talisker content.
I’m a fan of Talisker and knowing that the 8 is the youngest whisky in the bottle I had to try it. My gamble was rewarded with this wonderful discovery; a well balanced blend that captures the essence of island whiskies."
- Mark Davis, Whiskey Bros.
"Brilliant amber color. The nose is beautifully rich and fruity with semi-sweet fruitcake, wild honey, toffee, and treacle with vibrant notes of peat smoke. The palate echoes the nose with a lush, silky texture flanked by accents of wood and black pepper. Cleverly constructed delivering robust Island Malt notes with style and panache. Well done."
