Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 호박빛이 잔에 두텁게 펼쳐지며 묵직한 윤을 남긴다. 1990년 탈리스커가 리필 셰리 버트에서 26년의 침잠을 거쳐 캐스크 오브 디스팅션으로 풀려난 이 보틀링은 신선한 해풍과 짠 미네랄, 옅은 피트 연기와 검은 후추의 향이 한꺼번에 솟구친다. 한 모금에 53.3도의 단단한 알코올이 흑설탕 토피와 잘 익은 무화과, 정향의 매운 단맛을 두텁게 끌어온다. 스카이 섬의 거친 바람이 깊고 강렬하게 식어간다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
all right; high-end OBE. Verbena liqueur (Verveine du Velay) and old Chartreuse, maraschino, camphor, lapsang souchong, fir honeydew, some kind of candied smoke, old triple-sec, resins… Well this is just totally epic and glorious. With water: more very old chartreuse, and probably a few extremely old high-malt blends from like 90 or 100 years ago. Hints of bouillons, marrow, miso, certainly some beeswax, bull-dog sauce, a pinhead of Marmite…
restaurant Palate
immensely smoky, lemony, mentholy, terpenic, and shock-full of eucalyptus and affiliated tinier flavours (myrtle, for example, soft basil, wild thyme…) With water: just perfect, with more old magazines and books, sucking liquorice wood, lemon marmalade, marrow quenelles, cress soup… Amazing development and a great example of perfect bottle maturation
timer Finish
long, rich and yet tight and focused, rather resinous. Thai bouillon, I would say
