  • Welcome back Dram Fam, to the Whisky Diary. This week we are taking a look at 2 excellent Whiskies!
    With Whisky prices on the rise, I think many people are turning to the supermarket for an easy to get bottle, for a low price. Talisker has long been regarded as a great distillery producing an excellent core range, most of which you can get fairly easily in the local supermarket.
    Today, I take a look of two of these, the 10 Year Old, and the Skye, and see which of these 2 drams offers you the best bang for your buck!
    You can buy these whisky here (where available!)

    The thoughts and opinions in this video are my own. I'm not, and will never be, paid to influence my opinion on any whisky or product I review. My palate isn't perfect, and we're all learning everyday... Whisky is a journey, I'm just bringing you along for the ride!
    Please leave a comment with your suggestions for where I should visit next!
    Just like Whisky, knowledge is better shared.
    Thanks for watching!

    Talisker 10 is one of my favorite scotches on earth

      It’s a great dram, especially for the price!! Slainte 🥃🥃

    Strangely - I have been buying bottles of the 10 for some time, but always found it a bit sharp. I picked up a Skye at the weekend (on offer @ £25.50!), and much preferred it. I felt it was a little sweeter, but with some saltiness too (which is a nice mix), and had more of a BBQ feel to it. More pleasant to drink all round - IMHO.

    Another cracking review. Fortunately enough to have spent a lot of time in your company drinking cheap (and expensive) whiskies. It doesn't matter the price, you are always flavour led. Great job. 👍

      Always a pleasure tanning some drams with you mate!! Thanks for the kind words.. I GUESS I owe you a dram now, eh? 😂😂🥃

    Just picked up 2 bottles of Talisker 10 £30 a bottle Amazon fresh 😃

    Someone said the Skye is a great introduction to Talisker but I think the 10 is the best coming from them. Storm and Dark Storm are really nice with more salty and smoky flavours but I never connected with the Skye, I just don't get it in the line up, everything feels dialed down. I keep it in the freezer and use it to make Rusty Nails :) Great review, cheers!

    I love Talisker, it is certainly one of my favourite distilleries. I love both the Skye and the 10, but the 10 is certainly the standout between the two.

    • @Scotchtographer

      Absolutely agree mate!! A new shelf staple here. Cheers! 🥃🥃

    Just been on Master of Malt and well the box of a new release called Glenmorangie A Tale of the Forest caught my eye. With the box design being something that will easily catch the eye of anyone. While for the description it does sounds interesting. Now what does it taste like, well after buying some Whisky recently I am on the wall. But if such a Whisky pop’s up in Sainsbury’s I might have to pull the trigger so some more Nectar points can be earned.

    Having had the Dark Storm and the 10, I preferred Dark Storm. However, I picked up laiphroug 10 at £30 from Asda and it outclassed both for me.
    Also liking Ledaig 10. Any other similar recommendations to explore this type of palette are welcome. Great videos, keep up these comparisons!

    The Skye is quite sweet, orange, barley, salt, smoke... Its certainly not bitter to my taste... A great one.. Just picked up another bottle at morrisons for £24...such a bargain

  • @davidowen2834
    @davidowen2834 Рік тому +1

    I bought the sky when it first came out, haven’t bought it since, says it all really.I pick up the 10 when it’s on offer like a couple of months ago for €26 couldn’t say no. Good comparison video 👍 Slàinte

    I bloody love the Talisker 10, keen on the Skye too (particularly when it's on offer at £27). Cracking video mate, capiche?😉

    • @Scotchtographer
      @Scotchtographer  Рік тому +1

      Hahaha ya legend. Aye it’s a great dram. Not one I’ve really explored much before but definitely worth the price. Slainte!! 🥃🥃

    Would you say it's similar to Arran Barrel Reserve vs. Arran 10?
    I think Talisker 10 is my favorite whisky so far, I only tasted it when I bought a tasting pack where there was a 0.2L bottle, and I'm not sure which one I should get now.

  • @jackbird8700
    @jackbird8700 Рік тому +1

    I've ordered the skye for 23 quid!

    The only Talisker I've bought is Storm: more smoke, less pepper... but then I am a Friend of Laphroaig! I've had the 10 more than once when out and about, but I disliked the Skye so much I think I would turn down a free pour of that (as I once - quite memorably - did with Macallan Gold and - less controversially, perhaps - with Johnnie Walker White Walker).

    • @Scotchtographer
      @Scotchtographer  Рік тому +1

      See… right… first time I had Skye I was literally disgusted… but now I’ve had them back to back there isn’t as big a difference as I remember! But still… my choice has now been made.

  • @eyemallears2647
    @eyemallears2647 Рік тому

    My palette is NOT developed but……
    The 10 TO ME is lighter
    The Skye is darker fruits with aaaaaa heavy sweetness like caramel or something.
    The 10 is more open, and ILOVE the brine which is weird coz I hate sea food (mostly due to texture I guess)

  • @ghb7089
    @ghb7089 Рік тому +1

    Okay, you made me to drink a or several drams of taliskers.
    I'm going to quit from my 4 sober days, Ha!

  • @Dan-hn1lx
    @Dan-hn1lx Рік тому

    The 10 Port Ruighie and Distillers are all worthy drams the skye and storm are not as good imo and the amount of e150 in the new bottles is gross. I still look for the last series of bottles...

  • @raghavramon2051
    @raghavramon2051 Рік тому +1

    Good comparison. Talisker 10 is the winner overall

    • @Scotchtographer
      @Scotchtographer  Рік тому +2

      Absolutely!! Great liquid for a great price. Slainte! 🥃🥃
