What's the best Talisker in your opinion?.. Kinda wanna have a decent bottle here…

[Max Power]

The best is (to me) the 18 Year old. I got it at a reasonable Price, around 70-80 €. I wouldn't pay over 100 for it - the Variation has been quite wild over the last years. It's in my top 3 of all whiskies I've had so far.

A Close second is the Distiller's Edition. Around 60€ for the 1L Version makes it the most value for Money - if you like the fruity Sherry influences of the extra maturation.

Nice collection! I drink mine too fast to collect this many bottles at any one time.

Personally I like the friends edition and the 57 North, but you can't go wrong with the 10yr, still a great whisky.

How about these?..

Talisker Distillers Edition Double Matured Amoroso Cask 2016
Talisker Dark Storm

I haven't tried the Distillers edition, so I couldn't say for sure, but personally I'm not a fan of fancy cask finishes.

I have tried Dark Storm and its not as good as the standard 10yr old.

[Max Power]

The Dark Storm is indeed inferior to the Standard 10 YO, although it's a good Whisky. It's probably the most peaty Talisker of the ones I tried, but in that field there's also good Islay whiskies and it lacks some cask influences that the 10 YO has to offer.

Like I wrote regarding the Distillers Edition, it depends on wether you like Sherry influenced Whisky or not. I think that the peaty -spicy note of Talisker and the sweetness of the Sherry create a super complex Whisky that has a lot different aspects to explore. Same goes for the Port Ruighe, but this one lacks a bit age and maturation.

So, I'd recommend either the Distiller's Edition for a Sherry influenced Talisker or the Standard 10 YO for a less complex but well aged Whisky.

It's for them iodine die-hards I guess… It's a load of shite but the stuff's good so I don't care...

@seul how do you like the Talisker 10?

[Seul]

I've had it before - always was a fan… They need to make some Talisker BA beers...

[Max Power]

I've had a smoky "Whisky beer" from England some years ago, but it was not to my liking.

I really like Bulleit - I especially Enjoy their Rye
