Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
밝은 황금빛이 잔 속에 잔잔히 잠겨 있다. 아일랜즈의 아일 오브 주라 1999는 페시 일라를 기념한 보틀링답게 개성 있는 향을 머금는다. 옅은 흙내음과 잘 익은 과일, 약한 그을음의 향이 코끝에 비친다. 58.4도의 높은 도수는 입안에서 꿀과 보리 단맛, 가벼운 후추를 두껍게 채운다. 어린 숙성다운 활기찬 질감이 중심을 잡는다. 긴 여운은 옅은 흙내음과 곡물의 단맛을 천천히 남기며 식는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
much more happening than expected as far as both the profile and the ‘power’ are concerned. Very aromatic, with some rather bold notes of sweet white wine, candied apricots, caramel and ham. Meaty and jammy, developing with lots of praline, nougat and caramel as well lots of honey… Somewhat old style, rather rich and lush. What’s more, the meatiness grows bolder by the minute, with also a discreet soapiness in the background. Gets even a little too ‘thick’, as if somebody would have added concentrated wine and fruit juice – which is obviously not the case. Other than that it keeps developing on lots of tea (pu-erh, with that nice dustiness)
restaurant Palate
okay, it’s not as bold as on the nose but not weak, nor even weakish. Extremely caramelly and jammy again, now on fruitcake, plum jam, nougat, quite mellow in fact. Goes on with almonds, then bitter almonds, getting then much more bitter but in a rather nice way. The fruitiness vanishes towards the finish, which isn’t too long but with a returning meatiness and a pleasant dryness. A very good one, no doubt, but I’d have loved to try it at 45% or more. 85 points . Isle of Jura 1999 ‘Heavy Peated Edition’ (58%, OB for LMDW France , 40ppm, 2006)
