““Easy drinking” is not a criteria for a good whisky for me but this is. A very well balanced and complex taste. Definitely recommended.”

Description

You can spend years waiting for a new release in Talisker's core range then two come along at once! Hot on the heels of Talisker Storm in early 2013 comes Talisker's Port Ruighe, pronounced 'Port Ree'.

This no age statement release is finished in Port wine casks, imparting a new dimension to this Isle of Skye single malt.

Nose

After a wave of initial sea spray, the nose becomes more complex with Crayola crayons, orange pith and a touch of white chocolate. Demerara and even sticking plaster emerge briefly along with plummy, umeshu notes.

Palate

Initial characteristic Talisker brine once again but much sweeter than usual. Thick and mouth coating like the Storm with chilli and a little chocolate orange. Increasingly smoky - much smokier than the nose suggests.

Finish

Milk chocolate becomes cocoa and oak with mocha notes and the faintest hint of that orange pith once again.

Overall

Alongside the distillery style there are similarities with Talisker Storm with the thicker, oilier mouthfeel and wood smoke. Port Ruighe has taken on additional characteristics from the Port casks however, adding sweetness and different notes such as plum and chocolate.

Good

Excellent malt on 2nd bottle both bought by my partner for me

Arthur Ellis Apr 18, 2020

Sensational enjoyed by all guest at a party

sensational. Since Highland Park has had its demise in the 12 yr old to the rubbish viking blend I have been searching and found this, it is excellent.

Master of Malt Customer Mar 2, 2020

Interesting

Typical Talisker peat on the nose, with fruity and floral? And kind of sweet. Opens up to the spice or chilli or pepper on first taste with the usual salty talisker hints along with some sweet berries maybe citrus too. The finish was smooth with a typical fruity port finish and some hints of chocolate and light peat lingering. Overall a very delicious whisky from Talisker.

Not exactly what you can expect from Tali

Talisker is my favorite whisky so far. This one I would call "experimental edition" of this great distillery. In my opinion is not truly successful, Talisker 10 and Storm are much better. Talisker Distillery Edition (2008-2018) what I have tried recently is an excellent whisky without any doubt for all who like Talisker I presume.

Definite favorite

Delicious and complex. Starts with a gentle sweetness, but finishes with a great balance of spice and smoke.
