Islay Storm Bottling Note

An Islay single malt from a secret distillery, Islay Storm has loads of peaty character.

Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt

Nose: Peat smoke, oily, briny, some malt.

Palate: Sweet rush initially, then onto medicinal peat and seaweed, some bourbon notes, spices, custard.

Finish: Smoke, long and spiced.

Islay Storm Reviews

Great taste and value

My regular is Port Charlotte, but when I think about the difference of 59.95 for Port Charlotte vs Islay Storm for 19.99 I think I can have my first one of PC and then continue with Islay Storm. Great value and taste.

Lovely malt

Lovely easy drinking malt peat and smoke on the nose and slightly spicy and sweet on the palate

Dont like it when I run out

Talisker with less brine and salt? Oily bit thin palate growa in waves with a long lingering wave of smoke, dark salted caramel and a hint of liquorice. Just dont want to be without it. I like Laphroaig and Arbeg but this cheaper and less aggresive. The perfect opposite to Fruity orchard and citrus packed dram

As a scotch 4 stars but based on price 5

Top value. Light but smoky. Have tasted better but not at this price.

As good as any $60 Islay

Was very surprised with its clear Islay taste. I'll save the Ardbeg for myself and share this with my cigar buddies. I give it 4 stars as a scotch, but it's a 10 for the price.

A little too young to have much character, but pretty good for the price

Not bad. A little too young to have much character, but pretty good for the price (~$25 at Trader Joe's). Of course here in Kentucky you can find a better American whiskey for $25, Old Grand-dad Bonded bourbon is superb, but in this environment $25 for a single malt scotch is a steal. (In NYC I'd think somebody must've stolen it.) If this is what a "generic" Islay is like it's too bad my budget won't cover better (or at least pricier) examples of the species; I've seen 2 or 3 big-name Islays at various local Liquor Barns, but so far comparisons are silly.

Heaven in a glass!

Better than Laphroaig! A gorgeous whisky, cut with less water than I usually take or it goes 'thin'. The aroma is heavenly and the taste does not disappoint. Great value. Stunning. Ambrosia.

So custardy

The custard taste is so obviously Bird's.

Unsurpassed at the price. It's a 'light' peaty Islay, a more mellow dram when one doesn't want an Ardbeg, Laphroig or Lagavulin. Definitely one to use to introduce whisky drinkers to a bit of peat.

Incredible for the price

For the money this is hard to beat. One of my favourites.
