Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 황금빛이 잔에 맑게 어린다. 아일라의 보모어가 1990년 버번 배럴에서 25년을 보낸 이 위스키는, 오랜 숙성이 거친 연기를 다듬어 트로피컬한 과실 향을 한껏 끌어올렸다. 향에는 패션프루트와 망고, 옅은 바다 연기가 어우러져 솟아오른다. 한 모금에는 잘 익은 복숭아와 꿀, 은은한 훈연이 매끄럽게 번지고, 52.5도의 도수가 풍미를 또렷하게 받친다. 여운에는 시트러스의 산뜻함과 옅은 재의 기운이 곱고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
much fun to be had with this baby, as it’s not totally clear, which is an asset under these circumstances. What I’m trying to say is that you’ll find several vintages in one, or rather several styles gathered for your enjoyment. Tropical fruits from the 1960s, more yeasty muddiness from the mid 1970s, and more crystal-clean coastal/mineral smokiness from the early-to-late 1990s. How cool is that? With water: swims like the imaginary son of Mark Spitz and Shirley Babashoff. Utterly perfect nose, state of the art, with this typical muddiness that’s so lovely. Or there, wet dogs (we’ll be eternally sorry, dogs)
restaurant Palate
huge, crystal-clean, superbly lemony, blade-y, mineral, coastal, and just perfect. Exactly what we were looking for, even if the pepper in the back is a tad excessive. After all, this is not Talisker. With water: drier, more austere, grassier, but some grapefruits are fighting back. The smoke gets bigger too
timer Finish
long, pretty peppery, perhaps a notch too bitter or I would have gone to 92. Well that was a possibility
