Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 밀짚빛이 잔 안에 맑게 비친다. 지금은 사라진 전설의 아일라 증류소 포트 엘렌의 10년 원액은, 향에서 짭짤한 바닷바람과 토탄 연기, 레몬의 산뜻함을 또렷하게 피워 올린다. 58.4도의 높은 도수는 입안을 둥글게 감싸며 그을린 보리와 후추, 광물의 뉘앙스를 머금는다. 비교적 어린 나이에도 포트 엘렌 특유의 결이 분명하다. 여운에는 연기와 소금기가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
fresh mown lawn, kerosene indeed, tincture of iodine, chalk and plaster, new tyres (how very PE indeed), charcoal and ashes, one green olive, asparagus shavings, coal tar, and the tiniest grapefruit in the creation. There’s this ‘obvious’ side to these young PEs, you feel like you could just write ‘of course’. With water: old coal bags (hessian), coal dust, almond cream, clams, green apples, damp wool, and just a touch of ripe apple. Something ripe in a young PE, how’s that possible?
restaurant Palate
extremely punchy, acerbic and acidic, first with the greenest apples there ever was, then lemons and grey pepper, horseradish, tons of ashes, and, well, just the feeling of having eaten the ashtray after a very long night playing poker (maybe because you lost - whatever). Limoncello and old natural tar liqueur. Bang! With water: absolutely excellent, still a little brutal and demanding, on home-smoked salmon, more coal, more bits of tyre, more tire, and some very dry ashes. That ashtray, for example
timer Finish
very long, very dry and ashy. Lemons and a drop of orgeat syrup in the aftertaste, that’s a better civilised signature
