OVERVIEW | Released in early 2013, Talisker Storm has all the warm, smoky, peppery characteristics we all love in the standard Talisker 10 year old - but they've been turned up a notch, with more smoke, more spices, and a bigger-than-ever flavour explosion. |
TASTING NOTES | 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. |
