Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 탈리스커 특유의 후추 향과 1979년 빈티지의 강한 피트 스모크가 가장 먼저 두드러지며 짠 해변의 미네랄 노트가 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿으로 옮겨가면 흰 후추, 옅은 시트러스, 구운 곡물이 발전하고 62.7% ABV의 알코올이 단단한 구조감을 잡아준다. 피니시는 매우 길고 훈연 향과 후추가 잔잔하게 이어진다. 잔에 두고 시간이 지나면 곡물의 단맛이 더 또렷해지며 균형이 단단하게 잡힌다. 탈리스커 16년 숙성된 케이든헤드 어센틱 컬렉션 보틀링에서 빈티지 탈리스커의 강렬함이 또렷하다.

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
