Brand New Release Talisker Storm

Today we have for you a Brand New Relase Talisker Storm at a great sale price of $69.98. 

No whisky reveals the character of its birthplace better than Talisker. To know Talisker is to feel the power of the sea, and sense its rugged location on the banks of Loch Harport, on the foreboding Isle of Skye. Talisker Storm is an exuberant new expression of Talisker: more intense and smoky, with enhanced and vibrant maritime notes, smoothly balanced by Talisker's signature hot sweetness. This unique expression does not have an age statement. The Master Blender crafts the liquid from both rejuvenated 

and refill casks at different ages to enhance the vibrant, smoky and intense distillery character in the expression.

"Talisker is the only distillery on the Isle of Skye. We were inspired to craft an expression as unique as the dramatic terrain of the island from where it hails," said Diageo Master Blender Jim Beveridge. "Without the constraints of an age statement, we've been able to blend a range of exceptional whiskies together in one vibrant dram."

By removing the age restrictions for Talisker Storm, the Master Blender has full access to the distillery's exceptional whiskies, providing greater flexibility to introduce a range of flavors to the final product based on the maturity, rather than age.

Talisker Storm is best enjoyed neat or with a few drops of distilled water to unlock the elegant balance of sweetness, smoke and salt evident through the warm finish. 

Talisker Distillery Manager Mark Lochhead explains:

“Any new member of the Talisker family has a lot to live up to and I am proud to say that Talisker Storm does just that. The distinctive whisky we create with such passion and care here on Skye speaks very boldly of the dramatic island where it was born. Everyone here is delighted at the skill with which our malt masters have put together this vivacious new 

Talisker. Talisker Storm is indeed the right name for it!”

Tasting Notes:

ABV: 45.8%

Nose: Spicy, mellow smoke and a honeyed sweet maltiness with an explosion of pepper.

Palate: At first sweetly mellow and rich followed quickly by a spicy heat, like a gathering Storm. The flavour is elegantly drawn out with a balance of sweetness, smoke and salt.
Finish: Clean, warming, with a lasting aftertaste
