Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
카올 일라 1978 빈티지를 13년 숙성한 이탈리아 수출용 올드 보틀링이다. 노즈에서는 큰 모닥불 같은 훈연과 석탄이 명확하고, 조개와 굴, 해초 같은 해안 뉘앙스와 호두 껍질이 뒤따른다. 40도에서도 팰럿은 또렷하게 열리며, 시작부터 강한 소금기 위로 감초와 카라멜, 앤초비 같은 짠 감칠맛이 이어진다. 피니시는 도수에 비해 길고, 짭조름하고 비릿한 여운이 오래 남는 아일라 몰트다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
very typical nose, with a rather big smoke bonfire but also coal) followed with many coastal notes (clams, oysters, fish, seaweed) and notes of walnut skin, apple peelings and almond oil, with also a little graphite and maybe ink rubber. Some tar as well. More smoky/tarry than lemony/fresh
restaurant Palate
not big and maybe a tad more ‘uncoordinated’ than on the nose, with a lot of salt right from the start on top of some liquorice and caramel. Even more salt after a moment, anchovies… Even plain brine. Quite spectacular in its genre
timer Finish
long for 40%, just as salty and ‘fishy’
