Talisker Storm
Distillery: Talisker Distillery, Carbost, Isle of Skye, UK Age: N/A Proof: 45.8% 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. Color: Golden Notes: Released in early 2013, Talisker Storm has all the warm, smoky, peppery characteristics we all love in the standard Talisker 10yo - but they've been turned up a notch, with more smoke, more spices, and a bigger than ever flavour explosion. Talisker Storm seems likely to be a huge hit. |
