Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 탈리스커 특유의 후추 같은 해양성 향이 깔리고 가죽과 옅은 와인 뉘앙스가 더해져 평소보다 묵직하게 두드러진다. 시간이 지나면 초콜릿 향이 살아난다. 팰럿은 대단히 향신료가 강해 생강과 카다멈, 후추 친 꿀, 붉은 고추의 알싸함이 또렷하게 발전하며 오렌지 리큐어 같은 단맛이 비친다. 피니시는 길고 풋풋하며 매콤한 기운이 깊게 머문다. 스카이 섬 탈리스커 10년이 보여 주는 강렬한 향신료 구조가 명확하게 드러난다.

air Nose
the wine is much more obvious than in the DE, and I must confess that this is much less my style. I think that just like at many other distilleries, the combination of peaty whisky with red wine is a very tricky one, and that balance is extremely hard to achieve. The result is quick to become too leathery, or too farmy, or rubbery, or too bubblegummy, or simply dissonant or dirty-ish. I’m not saying that’s completely the case here, but again, I like the latest DE, or the new Storm, or the regular 10 years old better. Now, maybe the palate will tell us a different story? After fifteen minutes, some nicer chocolaty notes come through
restaurant Palate
how difficult to assess! I’ve never come across something that was that cask-influenced at Diageo’s (right, I haven’t tried everything of course). It’s an extremely bizarre whisky, at times liqueury, at times very orangey, at times hugely gingery (not to mention all the cardamom!)… Some parts are interesting or even nice (this peppery lemon) but others are, well, new to me. Between red pepper and… chilli and tomato sauce? Peppered honey? Cherry stem tea? Rubber bands? Chervil? Tarragon infused in curaçao? I’m compleeeeeetely lost here
timer Finish
long, quite acrid and green
