Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 스카이 섬 탈리스커 특유의 검은 후추와 짭조름한 바닷바람 노트가 명확하게 드러난다. 1979 빈티지를 15년 숙성한 카덴헤드 어센틱 컬렉션답게 캐스크 스트렝스 63.6도가 단단한 구조감을 받친다. 발달하면서 절제된 토탄 연기와 시트러스 껍질이 한 층 더해진다. 팰럿은 검은 후추, 짭조름한 미네랄, 가벼운 훈연이 발전한다. 입에 머금으면 강한 알코올이 입천장을 천천히 덮는다. 피니시는 매운 후추와 바다 소금이 길게 이어진다. 빈티지 탈리스커의 야성이 또렷하다.

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
