Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 짙은 호박빛이 잔 벽을 따라 무겁게 흐른다. 코를 가까이 하면 아일라 라프로익다운 짙은 이탄 연기와 요오드, 셰리의 건과일이 얽혀 솟는다. 한 모금 머금으면 25년 숙성이 다듬은 훈연과 건포도가 52도의 힘으로 혀를 덮고 짭조름한 단맛이 따라붙는다. 삼킨 뒤에는 모닥불 재와 다크초콜릿의 여운이 길고 깊게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
sharp and briny peat. Lemon juice drizzled over concrete. Some bonfire ashes, tarpaulin, creel nets, grilled oysters - it’s rather hefty and even slightly austere. In time there’s a few glimmers of bandages and orange peel. With water: more smoky, towards smoked paprika, smouldering leaves, light tarriness and green pepper. More straightforward ashy and salty notes
restaurant Palate
sweeter, straightforward peat, black pepper, cured meats, black olives, more brininess, antiseptic and a fug of cigar smoke. Clean but rather simplistic. With water: some putty and clay notes, salt water, anchovy, hot smoky notes, beach pebbles and more antiseptic notes
timer Finish
medium in length with a wink of lusher, fruitier character about it. But it’s kind of fleeting and more of a sensation than a palpable flavour. You can also add more cured meat and salted butter
