Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 호박빛이 잔에 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 1975년 증류해 25년의 시간을 보낸 스카이 섬 Talisker의 디아지오 스페셜 릴리즈 2001답게 탈리스커 특유의 후추 같은 매콤함과 59.9도의 강한 도수가 정면으로 부딪힌다. 코끝에는 짭조름한 바닷바람, 갓 그을린 피트, 옅은 후추 향이 어우러진다. 입에서는 묵직하게 흐르며 미네랄의 짠맛, 다크 베리, 후추의 매콤함이 발전한다. 여운에서는 짠 피트가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
inevitably, after a Talisker of the same age but completely natural, the sojourn in these Port casks, inevitably sweet, is even more apparent by contrast. Rest assured, there's no tenfold raspberry and blackcurrant jams, but still sultanas and figs initially, before the coastal power takes the lead again, without completely eradicating the sweet wine. There are very pretty notes of black nougat. Or rather of turrón, since we are in the Iberian Peninsula (sort of). With water: salty and peppery walnut liqueur
restaurant Palate
it's amusing, the Port has added notes of dry sherry, with walnuts upfront, but also a bit of moscatel. Is it the white Port speaking? With water: we return to Skye, to pepper liqueur, ashes, dry smoke, but also green pepper and simply salt. All this works very well
timer Finish
long, quite herbaceous, less sugary than I feared. Horseradish and chilli make for a warm and spicy continuation, you could splash some of this Talisker on spaghetti with tomato sauce. Or on some Portuguese dish, I suppose
