Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 황금빛이 잔 속에 잔잔히 잠겨 있어 1979년에 증류된 탈리스커 원액이 16년을 견딘 무게를 그대로 보여준다. 노즈에는 짭조름한 바닷바람과 흑후추, 마른 헤더 향이 강하게 드러난다. 입에서는 그을린 매연과 빻은 후추, 잘 익은 배가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 63도의 강한 알코올이 단단한 골격을 받친다. 스카이 섬 탈리스커 특유의 매콤한 후추 여운이 마지막까지 깊게 이어진다.
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
