Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 1979 라가불린 특유의 매캐한 잿빛 피트와 미네랄의 짠 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 15년 숙성이 캐스크 스트렝스로 발전시킨 훈제 자두, 가죽, 가벼운 셰리의 견과 노트가 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 59.2도 캐스크 스트렝스가 입을 깊게 채우며 짠 미네랄, 흑설탕, 잿빛 피트, 가죽이 단단한 구조를 형성한다. 아일라 라가불린의 정점 피트 캐릭터가 또렷이 드러난다. 피니시는 잿빛 피트와 짠 미네랄의 여운으로 매우 길게 이어진다.

we're extremely close to the new 12! This one's maybe just a notch more polished, with less antiseptic and maybe a few more leaves, but other than that and quite surprisingly, it's a close brother. With water: no, wait, this time it's completely different, with some fat fish coming out. Smoked salmon again, kippers, fresh big sardines... That's fun! Also a little aniseed and mint, there is an absinthy side for sure. After la fée verte, la fée d'Islay

same feeling, although this one's even oilier and kind of rootier. Huge mouth feel, it's almost peat syrup. Also some smoked salmon for sure, but it's all too strong for this sissy-of-a-taster. With water: fab, it's got more medicinal this time. A three metre long liquorice stick and three bags of salt plus a good bucket of liquid tar. H.u.g.e

same for a long time. Unusually medicinal for Lagavulin
