Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들어 향을 깨운 뒤 코를 대면 스카이 섬 탈리스커 1988 특유의 후추 같은 매운 기운과 옅은 피트 연기, 바닷내가 함께 솟아오른다. 한 모금 머금으면 45도의 술이 훈제 향과 시트러스, 짭조름한 소금기를 굴린다. 섬의 거친 풍토가 이 위스키에 또렷한 후추 맛을 새겼다. 삼킨 뒤 매운 연기와 바다의 여운이 길게 맴돈다.

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
