Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 서쪽 인달 만을 마주한 브룩라디는 피트를 거의 쓰지 않는 산뜻한 아일라 몰트를 빚는다. 프레시 셰리 호그스헤드에서 12년을 보낸 이 위스키는 잔에 짙은 호박빛을 담는다. 건포도와 잘 익은 살구, 바닷소금의 향이 또렷이 솟아오르고, 60.2도의 강한 힘을 타고 입에서는 무화과와 보리 사탕, 옅은 짠기가 진하게 번진다. 셰리 단맛과 해풍의 짠맛이 긴 여운으로 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
fine oloroso. I’m not sure the distillate has much to say in this context, but I also remember some wonderful totally oloroso-ed Bruichladdich 1964. Or was it 1965? Chocolaty and flinty, with pipe tobacco and bitter oranges (skins). With water: perfect game-y, bacony, chocolaty, walnutty sherry. Could have been almost any unpeated distillate, but the end result is superb. Great sherry cask
restaurant Palate
huge and pretty perfect, mentholated and bacony. Strong snuff tobacco, leather, dried cardamom, bitter oranges, caraway. Plenty. With water: a perfect sweet and sour soup, Thai-style ;-). Really very very good
timer Finish
its always in the finishes that things may go awry, and it indeed it’s becoming a little rougher and perhaps a tad too grassy/herbal, but as a friend uses to say, you could always pour another dram before the finish even starts. Let alone the aftertaste (which is perhaps a tad bitter)
