Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들면 옅은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 따라 흐르고, 코끝에 가져가면 라프로익 1967의 약방 같은 페놀과 28년이 다듬어 둔 오크 향이 함께 인사한다. 한 모금을 머금으면 50.2도가 입천장을 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르며 바다 소금과 의료용 요오드가 따라온다. 시그너토리 빈티지의 덤피 보틀을 삼키면 아일라 남단 특유의 토탄 연기가 길게 따라가다 천천히 사라진다.

oh, no! Didn’t the bottlers add a few litres of Yquem from the same vintage to this? You know, Yquem 1967… I’m not joking, I’ve never found such wonderful notes of apricot jam, heather honey, beeswax and old roses in Laphroaig, never. Beyond that, touches of old cigars, clay, camphor, all sorts of unknown flagons in a long-closed pharmacy, and maybe whiffs of fir cone smoke. It’s all pretty delicate, and yet firm, and yet delicate, and yet firm, and yet… With (a few drops of) water: more of the very same. Brilliant
restaurant Palate
makes you yodel. Big, almost massive, very piny, resinous, sappy, it’s some kind of very old herbal liqueur that used to cure any disease. Even malt mania. Some kind of honeydew. With water: ah yes, greases and oils, more old liqueurs, many herbs, liquorice, some piny smokiness, the best oysters, mint drops, some sap… It’s all very… symphonic? Oh and would you mind calling the anti-maltoporn brigade before it’s really too late?
timer Finish
it’s where it loses one or three points (not only because this is the end), it’s losing a bit of focus, perhaps, but it’s still quite extraordinary
