Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 보모어 9년으로, 올로로소 셰리와 버번 캐스크에서 숙성해 40도로 병입한 셰리 캐스크 보틀링이다. 노즈에서는 보모어 특유의 해안가 짠내와 훈제 굴의 향이 가장 먼저 두드러지고 셰리에서 온 크랜베리와 라즈베리 젤리가 더해진다. 팰럿은 짭조름하며 캐러멜과 소금 친 버터 퍼지의 단맛이 또렷이 드러나고 약간의 견과 풍미가 발전한다. 피니시는 더욱 짭짤하며 블랙 올리브와 퍼지의 잔향이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold/orangey
air Nose
well, this is typical Bowmore, very coastal and briny, we're nosing a large plate of smoked oysters sprinkled with a little teppanyaki sauce. Or is that teriyaki? I always confuse those names, the sweeter one… A little cranberry juice too, even raspberry jelly. Where does that come from. Still a very nice nose, though…
restaurant Palate
not that light at 40% vol., very salty, with just these notes of caramel that would get in the way. Indeed, that caramel that you're not supposed to feel in Scotch whiskies… But that would also impart notes of salted butter fudge and that, my friend, just always works. This baby would then become a tad more unlikely, with some slightly rubbery nuttiness, possibly from some 'cheaper' sherry casks. Still good
timer Finish
medium and even saltier. Black olives with crumbles of fudge and some kind of grassy liquorice. No 'lavender', naturally. Only the aftertaste is a tad flabby and strangely cardboardy
