Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 호박빛이 잔 안에 가볍게 비친다. 1970년 빈티지의 탈리스커가 16년을 보낸 후 53.1도로 병입된 이 고든 앤 맥페일 내추럴 캐스크 스트렝스 보틀링은 스카이 섬 증류소의 거친 활기를 그대로 안고 있다. 향에서는 짠 바닷바람과 가벼운 훈연, 잘 익은 사과가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 입에 닿으면 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르는 짠 토탄과 후추, 옅은 가죽이 입천장을 덮는다. 53.1도의 도수가 또렷한 골격을 만든다. 오크와 시간이 함께 만들어 낸 결이 부드럽게 이어진다. 여운은 짠 토탄으로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
chestnut
air Nose
like nosing a mahogany smoothie! Seriously this is some kind of interstellar, galactic collision of rare hardwoods, wood treatment oils, ancient jumbled workshops, hessian sackcloth, the finest coffee beans, liquefied peat, engine oil, dark crystalised fruits and Dundee cake studded with glazed walnuts, pecans and Brazil nuts. You can also include teas such as darjeeling, earl grey, mint, chamomile and lapsang souchong. There’s preserved lemons, mint julep, ancient dark rum, soft brown sugars, bitter chocolates, wild mushrooms, black cherries, balsamic, walnut wine and an ocean of rancio. Ridiculous whisky and almost embarrassing to write notes for. The kind of whisky that the anti-maltoporn brigade exists to protect us all against. Speaking of which, where the fuck are you guys?! With water: sharper, saltier, fattier, like frying bacon, ointments, toasted nuts, pure peat and black pepper. Seriously, where is the anti-maltoporn brigade?
restaurant Palate
leathery, salty, peaty, waxy, liquorice-laden, spicy, darkly fruited perfection! The bitterest chocolate, the purest, saltiest, punchiest rancio. Thick, sappy, oily, peppery, immense and utterly thrilling! Like drinking a 1936 Martin D-45 acoustic! With water: I think we’ll have to censor the rest or we’ll just be here all day and I’ll lose my shit beyond all reasonable hope of redemption
timer Finish
pretty much as endless, complex and poetic as you may imagine from all my gushing nonsense above
