Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 셰리 버트 피니시를 거친 탈리스커 특유의 오래된 석탄과 축축한 지하실, 시가 재의 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 단맛은 거의 없이 그을음과 초석, 쌉쌀한 코코아가 건조하게 발전한다. 46도의 팰럿은 석탄 같은 쌉쌀함과 비터 오렌지, 바다 소금기와 탈리스커 특유의 검은 후추가 또렷이 맞물린다. 피니시는 길지 않지만 시가 재와 바닷물, 용담주의 뉘앙스가 인상적으로 남는다.
AITasting Notes

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
