Talisker Storm
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.
Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
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.
Palate
Thick and mouth-coating with wood smoke, brine, some tin and chilli heat too.
Finish
Red chilli peppers and oak dryness with a hint of embers.
Overall
A welcome addition to the Talisker range, and probably the smokiest whisky to be produced on the Isle of Skye.
