Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 서안의 거친 바닷바람 속에서도 브룩라디는 토탄을 쓰지 않는 맑은 성격을 지킨다. 페드로 히메네스 셰리 캐스크에서 22년을 보낸 위스키는 짙은 호박빛을 머금는다. 코에는 말린 무화과와 건포도, 꿀 향이 진하게 솟고, 50.7도의 입에서는 검은 설탕과 대추야자, 옅은 바다 미네랄이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 달큰한 셰리와 짭조름한 기운이 길게 여운으로 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
a little spirity, quite punchy and very fruity, with notes of tinned pineapple, apples and peaches. A little raw and not very ‘precise’ I’d say. Whiffs of soda water and black pepper, and maybe hints of soap. Below par as far as the nose is concerned
restaurant Palate
simple, still quite fruity and spirity, with notes of kirsch and plum spirit. Hints of caramel. This one tastes like wood-matured fruit spirit. Again a little soap, I’m afraid
timer Finish
quite long but still very simple and rather indefinite, even if the fruity signature isn’t that unpleasant. Very far behind the OB’s, all OB’s. 70 points . Bruichladdich 1992/2007 'Fishky' (50.2%, Stupid Cask, Germany) Ho-ho-ho! This is a very funny experiment made by some German guy, who bought a bourbon cask of Bruichladdich new make and let it mature in Scotland and then let it being re-racked in sherry in 2001, and finally let it being shipped to Berlin last year. Guess what, he did then a herring cask finishing on it to pay tribute to the early distillers who used to use herring casks to transport whisky (Well, just any casks I think). All that with lots of humour, he even chose ‘Stupid cask’ as the bottler’s name. Good one! Let’s try it now…
