Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 중심 로크 인달을 굽어보는 보모어는 바다 안개와 오랜 셰리 숙성이 어우러진 우아한 스모크로 이름 높다. 잔에는 맑은 금빛이 돌고, 셰리 캐스크에서 16년을 보낸 향은 사과 껍질과 훈제 차, 시가 박스와 석탄의 미네랄이 겹겹이 피어난다. 1990년 빈티지의 53.8도 원액은 입안에서 소금기 어린 차와 쌉쌀한 다크초콜릿, 씁쓸한 오렌지를 그린다. 여운은 건조하고 스모키한 터키 커피의 잔향이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
much more wood influence (it was a remade hogshead) here and much more maturing. Starts on apple skin, cider, smoked tea, butter and develops on notes of cigar box and all sorts of herbal teas as well as soft spices. Again, this one gets smokier with time, and it’s beautiful smoke. Gets then quite mineral and meaty at the same time (coal, smoked ham, flints). Probably more complex than the BBR and more ‘intellectual’
restaurant Palate
quite smoother but certainly not tamed and certainly quite salty. Salted tea with yak butter? Gets quite ‘green’ after that, with again notes of old walnuts, very strong tea, very bitter chocolate (like 90% cocoa), bitter oranges… Quite some smoke of course, green leaves… Gets extremely dry but in a very, very nice way and the finish is long, perfectly smoky and dry, on un-sugared Turkish coffee (with the bits) and hints of mustard. Superbly austere and dry if you like that as much as I do. 87 points . Bowmore 16 yo 1990/2006 (53.8%, OB, sherry matured) A new version after the 1989 from last year – or was it two years ago?
