Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
셰리 펀천에서 26년을 보낸 오랜 숙성이 보모어의 해안가 피트에 진한 과실 단맛을 입힌 싱글 캐스크다. 코에는 말린 자두와 트로피컬 과일, 그 아래 깔린 옅은 바닷내와 연기가 어우러진다. 입에서는 건과일과 다크초콜릿, 은은한 훈연이 진한 질감으로 흐르고 50.1도의 도수가 균형을 잡는다. 짙은 호박빛 잔 너머로 셰리와 바다 연기의 여운이 길게 이어지는 아일라 명가의 몰트다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
gamey, herbal and wonderfully savoury at first. Lots of smoked sea salt, bouillon broth, Maggi, anchovy paste and natural tar. The peat seems to have been extremely well preserved despite peat and time. Also miso, soy sauce and even wee hints of kippers. With water: rather linear and doubling down on cured meats, drying earthiness and lots of dark, murky salinity. Black pepper, seawater and beef stock in a cocktail shaker
restaurant Palate
quite a bitter arrival all on herbal extracts - Jägermeister or Unicum - cocoa powder, soot and earthy black teas at first. Not totally convinced by the pairing of peat and sherry here. There’s much to admire but feels every so slightly out of kilter. With water: evolves a slightly unexpected spicy edge with some chilli-infused dark chocolate, smoked paprika and also new leather shoes, boot polish and some pretty hefty herbal bitters. Like concentrated Fernet Branca!
timer Finish
long, beefy, tarry, bitterly herbal and with rather a drying note of tannic black tea
