Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라의 쿨 일라가 리필 셰리 캐스크에서 30년을 보낸 어 레어 파인드로, 잔에는 짙은 호박빛이 윤기 있게 잠겨 있다. 오랜 숙성이 피트를 둥글게 다듬어 향은 그을린 흙내음과 말린 과일, 옅은 바다 내음이 어우러진다. 54.8도의 기운이 입안을 단단히 채우며 훈제향과 졸인 과일, 다크 초콜릿의 풍미가 부드럽게 흐른다. 쿨 일라의 청량한 피트가 셰리의 단맛과 우아하게 만나며, 여운에는 옅은 연기와 향신료의 잔향이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this is different. There’s some toasted oak, there is some coffee, there’s some charcoal, and there’s a very distant and almost elusive Caol-Ila-ness, which comes unexpected from the owners. What I also get, mostly, is a wonderful artisan cider, like they make in the best parts of Normandy. And old cigars (advance warning, that’s always a good sign). With water: it’s smoked cider of the highest order. I find it intriguing that Diageo’s First Nose(s) would have come up with such a profile
restaurant Palate
sweet Vishnu! This is implacable, sharp, acrid, oaky in a good way, mercurochromy spirit from Islay. Much bigger, powerful, and almost aggressive than expected. I even find it a little dangerous. With water: oh lovely. Smoother, gentler, civilised. Smoke and rosehips, I’d say
timer Finish
long, and earthy, and great. It strikes back
