Talisker - Storm 70cl Bottle

Product Description

Talisker Storm has a more profound maritime smoky flavour, taking the intense maritime experience to a new level. Appearance: Full Gold. Nose: At first restrained yet spicy, with a hint of struck matches; fresh-clean & growing in complexity like a gathering storm to reveal a honeyed sweet maltiness with ripe red berry fruit. Eventually a little well integrated mellow smoke drifts across the scene as a wild sea turns up briny, fresh clean notes, & an oily explosion of pepper. Body: Medium. Palate: At first sweetly mellow & rich in the mouth then quickly very spicy & increasingly stormy as the Talisker heat comes through. It's as if the pure, tongue-coating sweetness joins hands with a deep nutty smokiness to embrace those spicier notes. The flavour is elegantly drawn out with a good balance between sweetness, smoke & salt, which is all the more evident when a little water is added. Finish: Clean & of medium length, warming, with a lasting, smooth aftertaste, in which late peaty burnt embers can be found.
