Talisker's second no age statement release for 2013 after the heavily peated Talisker Storm. Port Ruighe (pronounced ‘Port Ree’) combines whisky matured in European and American oak refill casks, heavily charred oak casks, until blended and finally transferred into ex-port casks for finishing.

Other reviews... Sails into Port without changing course. 85 points - Jim Murray's Whisky Bible 2020

...Smoky bacon crisps on the early nose, damp earth, ripe plums, and plain chocolate. Sweeter in time, with a marine note, and black pepper. Smoky peat on the palate, with a spicy, sweet red wine edge. Medium in length, with oak, black coffee, and more dark chocolate. 45.8% ABV. - Gavin D.Smith, whiskyadvocate.com
