Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 후추 같은 매운 기운과 바다 내음, 옅은 연기로 문을 연다. 탈리스커 1979의 14년 숙성으로 스카이 섬 특유의 짭짤하고 강한 캐릭터가 또렷하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 해염과 꿀, 마른 향신료가 발전하며 46도의 도수가 단단한 균형을 잡는다. 피니시는 특유의 후추 같은 따끔함으로 길게 끌린다. 섬 위스키의 거친 골격이 인상에 남는 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
