Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔 안에 깃든 옅은 호박빛이 묵직하게 흔들린다. 디아지오 스페셜 릴리스 2009의 탈리스커 25년은 리필 캐스크에서 사반세기의 시간을 거친 스카이 섬 증류소의 묵직한 정수를 담는다. 향은 짠 바람, 검은 후추, 옅은 훈연, 마른 약초로 펼쳐진다. 입안에서는 54.8도의 알코올 위로 탈리스커 특유의 후추 톤과 짭조름한 미네랄, 옅은 시트러스가 흐른다. 여운은 스카이 섬의 청량한 바닷바람이 잔에 길게 깃든다.
AITasting Notes

air Nose
pretty much zero doubt, unless someone slightly unhinged has entirely re-dressed a very old Talisker from G&M or BB&R, which would make little sense. In short, it is very much on an old heap of coal at the back of a slightly damp cellar, with cigar ashes, saltpetre, soot, old liqueurs made from buds, chiefly fir, and bitter cocoa from the sherry. Not a gram of sweetness, everything is dry as a truncheon blow. We rather like this. Let us see whether the palate is a little tired, which, all things considered, would almost be good news. You see what we mean
restaurant Palate
we find the bitterness again, the coal-like side, but also those old fir liqueurs, this time joined by bitter orange. The coastal side is well present too this time, with salt but also Talisker’s proverbial black pepper. If this is not old Talisker, it is devilishly well imitated
timer Finish
not very long, of course, but the cigar ashes return, ashes that we might have extinguished by dousing them with a little seawater, then with gentian eau-de-vie, what an idea
