For the last four years or so, I have maintained my PGP primary key on a
Tails[0] thumb drive, and my subkeys on a redundant pair of OpenPGP
smartcards. This gives me:

a) offline storage of my master key
b) secure backup of all key material
c) convenient access using any of my existing machines

I started developing a tool[1] to simplify the management of the offline
primary key on the Tails drive, but development has stalled. If there is
genuine interest out there, I will dedicate some more time to it.
