Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑고 옅은 황금빛이 잔 속에 또렷이 비친다. 캐스크 스트렝스로 병입된 아일라의 라가불린답게 향에서는 강렬한 모닥불 연기와 바다 내음, 레몬이 날카롭게 피어오른다. 입에서는 짭조름한 피트와 후추, 옅은 단맛이 가볍고 강하게 깃들고 57.1도의 높은 도수가 입안 가득 뜨겁게 번진다. 라가불린 특유의 마른 훈연과 재의 여운이 깊게 이어진다.
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
