Irish Whiskey is a distilled alcoholic beverage produced in Ireland. Though Irish Whiskey production is relatively small compared to its Scottish neighbour, the Isle is highly-regarded for its unique rich and soft, blended and single-malt whiskies. The result of triple-distillation (Scotland and elsewhere is usually only twice) and the absence of smokey peat in the malting process.
Key flavour characteristics include: Smoothness: A silky texture on the palate, with less harshness compared to some other whiskeys, Lightness: Generally lighter-bodied than Scotch whisky, Fruity and Floral: Notes of orchard fruits (apple, pear) and floral undertones, Vanilla and Honey: Sweetness derived from ageing in oak casks, often ex-bourbon barrels and Grainy: A distinct cereal or grainy character.
The origin of Irish Whiskey is ancient, with distillation believed to have been introduced to Ireland by monks as early as the 12th century. The term "whiskey" itself comes from the Irish phrase uisce beatha, meaning "water of life". Irish Whiskey production has a rich and complex history, marked by periods of growth, decline, and resurgence.

The Isle of Skye is the birthplace of the heralded Scotch Whisky house of Talisker. And it is this island that gives this remarkable and unique whisky its distinctive character. The power of the sea and the inherent rugged location give birth to a dram of complexity, nuance and strength. With a sweet warmth on the nose and front palate that gives way to a briny and peppery finish courtesy of the skilful balancing of differing aged Talisker casks. Available only for a limited time, Talisker Storm is a truly tempestuous single malt.
