Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 호그스헤드에서 8년을 보낸 숙성이 탈리스커 특유의 후추 같은 매운맛과 바다 내음을 또렷하게 담아냈다. 향에서는 옅은 훈연과 굴, 짭조름한 소금기가 어우러져 올라온다. 48.4도의 도수로 입에서는 후추와 시트러스, 가벼운 연기가 알싸하게 번진다. 맑은 금빛을 띠며, 여운에는 스카이 섬의 짠 내음과 매콤한 끝맛이 길게 남는다.

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
