Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 황금빛이 잔에 또렷이 비친다. 라가불린 12년 디아지오 스페셜 릴리즈 2016이 리필 아메리칸 오크에서 다듬어진 시간을 잔 안에 풀어낸다. 향에는 짭조름한 바닷바람과 마른 해초, 옅은 향나무 연기가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 머금으면 보리설탕과 그을린 가죽, 짙은 피트 연기가 두꺼운 질감으로 입천장을 덮고 57.7도의 캐스크 스트렝스가 아일라 남부의 강렬한 결을 길게 풀어낸다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
goodness gracious, this is a blend of seawater, sorb and holly eaux-de-vie, gentian and chlorine (pool water). Some white asparagus too, shoe polish, sauna oils, new rubber bands and tyres, kerosene… And perhaps a little more fatness than in earlier releases. With water: some fresh paint this time, and even more new tyres and inner tubes, leatherette, benzine, kerosene (airport runway after a busy day)
restaurant Palate
two-stroke Lagavulin, with citrus liqueurs and with straight peat smoke. Some kind of smoky limoncello, perhaps a little binary, but water should help. With water: this is funny, we've found the 8 in this 12, now that water's been added, but the 8 was a tad more in high-res, so to speak
timer Finish
long, with a little fatness from the woods (I suppose) and even something very marginally syrupy. Classic aftertaste, on iodine, tar, lemon and pure peat
