Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 코끝에 가져가면 아일라 라프로익 25년이 버번 캐스크에서 얻은 옅은 황금빛 너머로 묵직한 약품 같은 페놀과 토탄 연기를 먼저 내민다. 향을 들이마시면 소독약과 그을린 해초, 바닐라가 강렬하게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 60.6도의 뜨거운 기운이 혀를 감싸며 매캐한 재와 소금, 꿀이 번진다. 삼키면 오래 숙성한 라프로익의 깊은 연기와 짠맛이 길고 진하게 따라온다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
hot and powerful, seemingly a little buttery and quite mentholated, but that may be the effects of the very high strength. With water: more butter and even yoghurt, muesli, boiled cereals… And a moderate smokiness
restaurant Palate
ah yes, this works greatly. Starts with some sweet round vanilla and touches of pink grapefruits (more than touches, actually, there’s plenty) and goes on with a great balance between lemon, smoke and brine. With water: more of all that, it all becomes nicely tart and very nervous. Passion fruits
timer Finish
long, citrusy. Notes of tinned pineapples and orange segments (in syrup)
