Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스카이 섬 카본 호숫가의 거친 바닷바람과 짭조름한 공기가 탈리스커 2010의 페티드 캐릭터를 결정짓는다. 짙은 호박빛 너머로 후추 같은 페놀과 해초, 건포도의 향이 또렷이 드러난다. 7년이지만 셰리 벗이 만든 진한 단맛과 절제된 훈연이 두꺼운 질감으로 입을 채우고, 57.7도 알코올은 탈리스커 특유의 시그니처 후추향을 깊게 풀어낸다. 짠 여운이 머문다.

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
