Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
첫 향에서는 1974년 증류된 쿨일라의 마른 이탄 연기와 레몬 껍질, 짭조름한 해초 향이 또렷하게 올라온다. 22년의 숙성으로 훈연은 정제되고 올리브 오일 같은 기름진 질감과 흰 후추가 명확하게 발전한다. 팰럿은 57.1도의 도수가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르며 그을린 보리와 재, 시트러스의 산미가 또렷한 구조감을 이룬다. 피니시는 은은한 연기와 짠맛이 길고 건조하게 이어지며 깔끔하게 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
there's clear familiarity with the 1982 but these 74s have extra power in the form of this almost gelatinous peat aroma, petrol, wet kelp and tarred rope. More muscular, more medicinal and globally a feeling of greater thickness and more power. Many gorgeous subtle aromas beneath all that as well, impressions of crushed seashells and beach pebbles, ink, green peppercorns in brine. With water: more herbal and mentholated now, going towards dried herbs, eucalyptus, tiger balm and smoked heather beers
restaurant Palate
superbly salty, coastal, sharp and full of oily peat flavours, raw lemon juice, sheep wool oils and camphor. Also things like putty, brined olives and more tarry rope vibes. Massive and totally brilliant whisky! With water: brilliant with water now! Perfectly fat, oily, tarry and peppery peat smoke flavour with seawater, lemon juice, TCP olive brines
timer Finish
long, still on wonderfully fat peat smoke vibes, smoked sea salt, petrol and powerful coastal impressions
