Talisker Storm was released in early 2013 as a no age statement whisky, which was matured in specifically selected refill and toasted American oak casks. An intense and vibrant dram, the Storm offers up plenty of distillery character alongside some smokier depth and complexity.
With a classic Talisker profile, a depth of beautiful flavours and a very reasonable price point, this is an ideal single malt for those thinking of exploring malts from the Scottish islands.
Initial brine, but not as abrupt as the 10 Year Old, quite creamy by comparison. Banana. Banana angel delight? Window putty, hint of sticking plasters and barbecues, citrus. White pepper develops towards the bottom of the glass.
Thick and mouth-coating with wood smoke, brine, some tin and chilli heat too.
Red chilli peppers and oak dryness with a hint of embers.
A welcome addition to the Talisker range, and probably the smokiest whisky to be produced on the Isle of Skye.

Love the airy, smokey taste. Great aroma. The only Scotch I buy.
Great aroma, pretty good finish.
A very nice dram ( or 3 ) to start Christmas day. Very tasty. Would recommend.
Delicious, smooth but striking to taste with a hint of pepper and peat.
Nice traditional island flavor, tried it first because it was on sale. Now I purchase for friends who haven't had Islay malts before.
