Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 호박빛이 잔 안쪽에서 단단히 빛난다. 1979년 빈티지의 탈리스커를 14년 만에 63.9도의 캐스크 스트렝스로 병입한 이 캐든헤드는 식은 훈제와 굴 껍질, 마른 후추의 향이 깊게 머문다. 입에서는 강한 알코올이 검은 후추와 짭짤한 미네랄, 옅은 해초를 단단한 질감으로 펼친다. 스카이 섬의 거센 해풍이 따스한 단맛 위에 길게 새겨진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
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
