Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 평균적인 쿨 일라보다 스피릿에 가깝고 약재 같은 소독약과 요오드 팅크가 또렷이 두드러진다. A.D. 래트레이가 고른 1984 빈티지는 21년 숙성에도 의약적 개성을 58.5도 안에 그대로 담는다. 팰럿은 힘차고 깨끗하며 피트와 약재가 다시 앞서, 옅은 딸기 풍선껌과 짭조름한 소금기가 층을 이룬다. 피니시는 길게 이어지며 의약적 뉘앙스와 쓴 아몬드가 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
we’re already in front of something more spirity and maybe a tad more medicinal than the average Caol Ila, with whiffs of antiseptic and tincture of iodine. Those medicinal notes grow bigger and bigger actually, let’s see what happens with the addition of a little water. With water: not much changes, it just gets a tad more mineral and nutty, but the medicinal side remains
restaurant Palate
punchy, very good, clean, peaty and very medicinal once again. Gentian eau-de-vie. Very faint notes of strawberry bubblegum and quite some salt. With water: no more bubblegum, rather more salt, walnuts and indeed, clams (or queen scallops, as you like)
timer Finish
rather long, with its medicinal side still there. Bitter almonds
