Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 미네랄과 풀내음이 날카롭게 앞서고, 오징어 먹물과 타르, 서양고추냉이 같은 원초적 해안 향이 두드러진다. 1969년 증류해 셰리 캐스크에서 10년을 보낸 이 보모어 200주년 보틀링은 거칠면서도 눈부신 힘을 56.2도 안에 담는다. 팰럿은 코와 달리 시럽처럼 달고 짭조름하며, 패션프루트와 연고, 부서진 조개껍질이 층층이 쌓인다. 피니시는 끝없이 이어지며 기름진 피트와 미네랄, 석유 같은 여운이 깊게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
immediately grassy, punchy and very mineral. Impressions of squid ink, anchovies, tar, embrocations and horseradish. Like many of the OB single casks of this era this is raw, powerful, petrolic and rather dominating. Brutal yet rather brilliant at the same time. Given time it yields a little more softness and a more easy and fresh coastal salinity. It also becomes a tad more citric, fruity and complex. With water: much more bready, autolytic and olive oily. Camphor, more sweat and some very soft notes of dried tarragon
restaurant Palate
Wow! Stunning delivery. The nose really wrong foots you on the levels of fruit in this one. The palate is stunningly syrupy, fresh, salty and superbly fruity. Vividly coastal, lemony and medical. Full of ointments, embrocations, crushed seashells and brine mixed with olive oil. Passion fruits, coal dust, dried mint, old cigarettes… you could spent all day listing beautiful wee complexities. With water: Quite simply outstanding! The nose in no way prepares you for how thrilling and dominating the palate is. A perfect fusion of oily peat, jellied exotic fruits and salty, umami broths
timer Finish
endless and twining all the above flavours together like rope. Devastating complexity. Grisly, gutsy exotic fruits, fatness, greasy peat, chunky minerality and again this feeling of petrol
