Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 라가불린 특유의 짙은 피트 연기와 요오드, 그을린 오크가 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 리필과 엑스버번 호그스헤드에서 7년을 보낸 이 아일라 재즈 페스티벌 보틀링은 59.5도의 힘으로 훈연을 또렷하게 밀어 올린다. 팰럿은 탄 나무와 소금, 다크초콜릿으로 발전하며 어린 나이에도 두꺼운 질감을 보인다. 피니시는 재와 후추, 해조류의 짠맛이 길게 이어진다. 강렬한 아일라 피트와 구조감이 단단한 한 잔이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
pure brine and seawater, augmented with a drop of nail polish remover, the usual fresh rubber (new scuba suit, wellies) and only minimal amounts of vanilla this far. It's actually rather tarmacky, at least even more tarmacky than usual, should tarmacky be a proper word in English. With water: sootier and tarrier yet. A few pencil shavings, a little tincture of iodine, and no signs of immaturity. Something tropical for sure
restaurant Palate
it seems that someone wanted to prove that Lagavulin can be a perfectly proper Lagavulin, even when very young, which a few indies as well as the Distillers themselves already did (with the 8). What's sure is that the trademark sweetness, reaching pears and pineapples this time, is well there. The rest is classic tar, peat, brine, with a drop of mango juice too… With water: more pepper showing up, more citrus too, lime juice, lemongrass, even oranges, as well as a little barley syrup… Certainly 'sweeter' now
timer Finish
medium, really sweeter than usual at this point. It's no smooth jazz, no worries, but it is a little gentler, as if some of the casks had been deep-charred
