Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 젖은 석탄과 시가 재, 그을음의 마른 미네랄 향이 먼저 두드러진다. 탈리스커 1993은 해안가 증류소 성격답게 15년 숙성 46도에서 단맛 없이 건조하게 뻗는 전나무 리큐어와 쌉쌀한 코코아를 명확하게 드러낸다. 팰럿에서는 쓴맛과 석탄, 비터 오렌지에 탈리스커 특유의 검은 후추와 소금기가 균형을 이룬다. 피니시는 시가 재와 바닷물의 짠맛이 길게 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
