Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 탈리스커 25년이 리필 셰리 캐스크 숙성을 거치며 형성한 짭조름한 후추와 잘 익은 자두, 옅은 훈제 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 팰럿에서는 다크 초콜릿과 마른 무화과, 강한 백후추가 57.8도의 캐스크 스트렝스 위에서 강하게 발전한다. 스카이 섬의 거센 바닷바람이 노트에 깃들어 있다. 디아지오 스페셜 릴리스 2004답게 탈리스커의 페퍼리 코스탈 캐릭터를 보존한다. 피니시는 후추와 짠 미네랄이 길게 이어진다.
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
