Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
캐든헤즈가 병입한 탈리스커 1979로, 오래된 석탄과 축축한 셀러 같은 드라이한 노즈가 곧바로 두드러진다. 시가 재와 초석, 그을음 향이 차례로 발전한다. 팰럿은 61.6도에서 쓴맛과 석탄, 비터 오렌지에 탈리스커 특유의 검은 후추가 얽혀 강건하다. 피니시는 다소 짧게 시가 재와 바닷물 같은 뉘앙스가 남는다. 올드 탈리스커의 무게가 짙게 담긴 보틀링이다.
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
