Algea and rotteness? Lol, this whiskey is SPECTACULAR! Love the smokey, peatiness of this scotch!
lol Ben's face when he gets an early smell while Horst is still talking
My favorite in the world so far.
The smoky and woody tones are best 👌 for me. Goes too good along with cigarettes, needless to say.
put down the cigs and try it with good pipe tobacco instead
Ben's accent is so strange. He sounds almost like a Scottish German. He says some words like I would (I'm from Scotland) then gets German by the end of it. Crazy.
I think they have pretty fluid English-speaking accents because they listen to/speak to people with a variety of accents. Horst can even sound Japanese when saying some words while doing videos for Japanese whisky.
I am a novice whisky taster and I have found that tasting along with Horst and/or Ben’s reviews is not only enjoyable, but also extremely informative in helping me to understand what I’m smelling and experiencing on my palate. Thanks, gents!
As for the Talisker 10 y.o. - delicious! Love the pepperyness.
Talisker tastes like a Viking funeral, burnt wood on a mournful sea.
@Aaron9 Poetry my friend, have you heard of it ^^
more like gasoline mixed with sea water
That..is a beautiful way to describe it.. very nice picture...
@@TheWildBuckOutdoors Scotch clearly isn't for you, my friend
that is one of the most poetic descriptions of a whisky flavor I've ever seen. well said.
I'm sipping Talisker 10 right now and its flavor evoked a picture of a sea battle between the Norse and the Gaels on the Northwestern shore of Scotland lol
Just opened my first bottle tonight and my first impression is amazing. I love the complexity of this 10 year old. Looking forward to the next few drams to see how this plays out.
Talisker 10 is a great whisky. Very enjoyable and not too peaty but there is some peat smoke in there.
I live beside the sea and come from a fishing community. This whisky remind me of home. Reminds me of the coast and the briney saltiness of the ocean. A wonderful fisherman's drink.
This whiskey is beautiful.
I like the talisker 10 yrs old for the specific flavor. I am a medical scientist in Seoul, The flavor is simillar to phenol. I used to empty 1 bottle when I went to 1 night camp. No hang over in the wood.
@Damian A Do you work in healthcare? Drink every night.
The best scotch reviews anywhere. Please keep them coming! Fun and informative.
I wished I had gotten that tonight...but I couldn't pull up your review in the store cause I had 0 reception...definitely my next purchase based on review and comments..thank you
Macallan 12 year was a good purchase either way
@@anthonysaccone996 but I can get that in any bar
They say this is not a beginner scotch, but I am only at my second scotch (the first one is Abberlour 12 years) and I am totally blown away by the smell and the taste of this smoked scotch. The complexity and the exotic flavours are amazing. Also drinking while watching your review made the experience totally unique!
Glad to hear that!
An excellent way to imbibe, sir.
Sadly, although Taliska’s are distilled at the distillery at carbost, the majority of Taliska whisky gets transported to the Diageo warehouse’s further south and inland at blackgrange near Stirling, and just north or Glasgow. So taliska whisky does not mature by the sea, and so it cannot be influenced, shaped, flavoured by the salty air at the distillery. So to say on the Taliska packaging that it is made by the sea, is a little misleading and not quite true or honest. The new make spirit may be made by the sea, but maturation takes place many miles away, down near Glasgow. It would be more honest to say “ distilled by the sea, matured by the city”.
Had a bottle of this a few years ago and remembered loving it. It was rigid but wholesome like a weathered sailer
True Scotsman’s drink right here
I was concerned that this whisky was super-phenolic, with a heavy, iodine-seaweed taste. It is not anywhere near to that.
Talisker 10 is slightly smoky, with tastes of black pepper, slight salt, peaches, and oranges. Very nice!
to the smell i get mild bonfire peat smoke, beneath that some sea salt and oak, on the palate its the perfect combination of the sweetness of green fruits and some honey with the power of white pepper on the sides of the tounge, ending with a long and lasting bonfire peat smoke on the upper palate and a warm mouthfeel for minutes
Talisker is so good it is my reference point in the whiskey universe. I thought, "how many Talisker this bottle cost? Did it worth it?" whenever I tried new bottles. The answer defines if I ever buy that bottle again.
I just opened this. After the first drink I feel like I just drank something that spilled in an ashtray. Not good
Along with the Laphroaig 10 my favorites.
how time flies...... 2017 sees like it was yesterday
Sweetness is definitely there just like the strong white pepper taste as its character. If u can manage to sip as little as one drop it will taste like honey. My advise is u really do not want to drink it with dry mouth u need to moist your mouth first. Or, u can mix it with a little distilled water first. Do not drink it as mouth full as Ben did. The perfect drinking amount is like let the drink seep directly into your throat and let the taste remain in your mouth.
This is a really great video. You guys are awesome. I thoroughly enjoy your videos. Thanks!
I just opened and tasted the Talisker 10 while watching you video. this was my first try. I had tasted Talisker Skye before. I can't tell yet which is my favorite yet.
This is not for the faint hearted and certainly not for beginners. It’s raw. It’s like a Viking longship sailing through the sea with AC/DC playing in the background.
😂🏴
I love this whisky, is amazing! Ocean, Peat, Seaweed, Smoke, Salt, it’s amazing. If you would’ve told me that I was going to like a whisky with those notes I would’ve called you a liar 😂
I was sipping one while listening. I thought it was very peppery, it is complex really but the pepperyness comes through. This is a sharp, intense, complex, peppery drink.
My favorite Scotch, hands down. Has the great peat, but layered over caramel, chocolate, and marine goodness. I had never isolated that chili pepper element till now! Great observation!
Oh, it was there on my first take. Has good character.
They said oldest, not only.
This used to be my “go to” single malt. Then I discovered Coal Ila, etc. Still like to revisit this one. Not a fan of The Storm, too young.
I felt free to share this video with my friends.
When I tried Talisker 10, it absolutely blew Storm out of the water. Much more complexity. Storm was very balanced, but 10 has much more depth and many more layers of flavor. Green apples, nutmeg spice, leather, and woodsmoke are what stand out for me.
I agree. Did you try the skye already too?
Love these guys
I get a light cinnamon note on the nose as well as citrus iodine bandaids campfire extinguished like wet ashes nail polish leather caremel salty sea air musty vegitation. This is a real complex nose. Taste cigar smoke Citrus caremel pepper sweetness. Long lasting aftertaste.
Good whisky both. I like this battles. There are allways (what i have seen) different but quality whiskeys to compare. I just take a drink HP while watching. I love this! Thanks!
Wish you gave each whisky a rating, a mark like Ralfy.com. Reviews leave us hanging. BTW, I’d give Talisker 10 a mark of A or 9 out of 10.
Smokey good, but not as peaty as say an ardbeg 10. Marvelous whisky
Another great tasting and talk! This month I'm working the scotch whisky advent calendar I picked up at master of malt online. Have you thought about offering an advent calendar on whisky dot com? Slainte!
Just open my first bottle of Talisker 10. My first smokey one also, is Just amazing. No alcohol at all, and yet very strong. Not as complex as I tought it will be. Pepper pepper.
Hey,i just bought a talisker 10,everything about the bottle looks and feels genuine,but I'm afraid that the label on the backside of bottle is slightly misaligned (like its little bit bended down to the right)
Is it just a normal mistake by the company or its Fake?
Spot on with the smell, it felt like standing on a rocks by the sea when i was a kid. really pleasant memories. its so suttee and now my favorite whiskey.
So what would be a better starting point for a light to moderately peated scotch whisky...Talisker, Highland Park or another?
Been enjoying a small bottle of this one today. It's really great.
The first single malt that I tasted was a Talisker Distiller's Edition. I have never tasted it again since it's not sold in Mexico. But the 10 year old is available and is my favorite scotch. Nice review.
have had laphroig it's a peaty delight . not found a cheaper substitute
Is it harsh on the palate? How's the maturity?
Amazing taste.
yeah true love your papa when your together gives you a better feel on the whisky you review thanks again loving buying whisky in Japan from expat Auusie
It was at 6.40 minutes in that I knew this is a good un
Great whisky, great watch! 🙂
sounds like Christopher Walken
Where do I find one of those glasses?
You can try a similar and popular one called the Glencairn Glass. Works well.
Anyone know the brand of those glasses?
Where to get those glasses?
Just added to my list, thanks!
bought a bottle today wonder is it like laphroig??????
Michael Forde laphroig is much more peatier, havent tried it though
On the nose its similar smoke and peaty, taste a lot less peat
i want to extend my range of scotches into the peat world but the description and tasting note are always a put off. Even the HP 12 is one bottle i wish i didnt buy.
The sound of love 6:37
Tali 10 still is my go-to. I always have HP12, Bowmore 12, Arbeg 10, Talisker 10, Laphroaig QC and Coal Ila 12. This grouping for me is all I need.
I add the Laphroaig 18yo, Lagavulin 16yo, Green Label, Island Green & Talisker Dark Storm for special occasions.
Rare to find in my part of the world is Talisker DE & Talisker 18Yo, I have 200ml mini's (as opposed to the full 750ml). Also very very rare now is the Laph 18Yo which has been discontinued for some absurd reason.
The Laph 18Yo is just simply in its own league though.
I like your reviews. especially when I'm "pairing" the review on the telly and a glass in my hand at the same time :-)
@ Nash Home, I totally agree. All the ones you list here are in my collection and I really love them all. The Tali 10 I just opened and love it, I have finished, HP 12, Laphroaig QC, a couple bottles of Bowmore 12 and Ardbeg 10, loved them all, you have great taste my friend.
Thanks mate. I must also recommend the Ardbeg Uigeadail. Also very nice. I just finished a Tali 10 :-) I found it so nice. I started the chewing/gargling thing that Horst does in his videos - i used to find it weird. I must say, my last bottle of Tali 10 was an elevated experience.
Every now and then I have sweeter whisky's. The Redbreast 21 is just sublime. And just about any Glenmorangies are also good. I can appreciate the range of whisky tasts. Just simply love the smokier and peaty ones.
Happy drams :-)
Nash, sounds like all you need now is Ledaig 10.. you mustn't ever leave that one out!
Give Octomore 7.3 a try.
Try Red Breast Cask Strength too
I like when you guys review whiskEY together. You guys make a great duo.
why did you add the "EY" to your whisky spelling, like you're right and other parts of the world are wrong? you must be american.
Well since this is a Scottish whisky, spelling it without the extra E is probably more appropriate.
Luke right because people from other parts of the world cant be stuck up.
correct!
Just a way to identify where I'm from scotch > bourbon IMO
At first I thought they were English, but I assume they are German or Austrian. Talisker is an amazing scotch that is almost like an Islay, but it has its own mojo. I love this stuff. I drink a decent amount of Irish (Blackbush, RedBreast when I am flush), not to mention American (Four Roses, Angel Envey or Woodford when I am flush).
I do hold scotch close to my heart, and Talisker is a great one (like Laphroigh, Laga vo Ilan, or any of the Glenmorangie whiskeys finished in sherry or port barrels). As much as I hate port and sherry, I seem to love anything finished in those barrels.
Gongratulations from Brazil, your videos are stunnings. I bought this scotch this week and thank you for Reviewed
To me the brine and peat come over really quite strong, even reminds me of when I first tried Ardbeg 10, it has quite a unique taste quite friendly but lots going on. Love it but really can't find much difference from the Talisker Skye which is cheaper, so I'd take the Skye either way Talisker has the best signature sea taste, love it.
Would you be kind enough to sugggest what to eat as appetizers while drinking Talisker ?
Smoked salmon and brown bread. Simply wonderful.
Great duo!
