Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 호그스헤드에서 8년을 보낸 짧지 않은 숙성이 탈리스커 특유의 거친 매력을 그대로 살렸다. 스카이 섬의 바닷바람을 머금은 듯 향에서는 옅은 훈연과 후추, 짭조름한 미네랄이 먼저 솟아오른다. 입에서는 검은 후추의 알싸함이 보리 단맛을 타고 묵직하게 번진다. 48.4도의 단단한 도수가 옅은 볏짚빛 너머로 매캐한 연기의 여운을 길게 끌고 간다.

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
