Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 호그스헤드와 PX·올로로소 시즌드 호그스헤드라는 결의 우드가 라가불린 20년 페이스 일러 2020을 다층적으로 빚어낸다. 노즈에는 짙은 훈제 연기와 잘 익은 무화과, 짭조름한 미네랄이 가장 먼저 올라오고 그 뒤로 마른 가죽과 흑설탕이 따라붙는다. 입에서는 훈제된 자두와 다크 캐러멜, 묵은 우드 스파이스가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 54도의 알코올이 단단한 구조를 만든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it certainly ‘feels’ like an older dram - although after the 8 that’s not saying much. A little more mentholated, herbal and petrolic with these lovely notes of salted almonds, kippers drizzled with lemon juice, salted mead, birch beer, cough medicine and iodine drops. There’s also a peppery vinaigrette note with watercress, waxed lemon rind and something like smoked shoe polish (which probably exists in some hipster modern man shop somewhere). Some ash-rolled goats cheese, cow shed, vapour rub, lemon balm and a rather strong note of mocha and a little very bitter chocolate. With water: much more coal dusty, tobacco leaf, lemon rind, earthy mulch, seaweed and touches of beef stock
restaurant Palate
thick, salty, fatty, lots of bacon, salted almonds, soy sauce, a few drops of good limoncello, old ointments, cough syrups and herbal extracts. Excellent delivery. Returns to these light menthol qualities such as eucalyptus vapours and balms. Sandalwood, black olives, mushroom powder and lapsang souchong. A big, emphatic, mouth-coating texture. With water: green peppercorns in brine, game meats, fir liqueur, antiseptic and plasticine. A big, fishy, oily and leathery Laga
timer Finish
long, leathery, slightly gamey, salted meats, tar, iodine, seaweed, brine and soot
