Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑은 황금빛 속에 아일라의 기운이 가득하다. 라프로익이 1992년 버번 배럴에서 13년을 보내며 얻은 짙은 피트 연기와 요오드, 바닷소금이 코를 먼저 사로잡는다. 59.1도의 캐스크 스트렝스는 입안을 묵직하게 채우며 약재 같은 향과 탄 나무, 훈제 향이 거세게 번진다. 여운은 재와 소금기가 길게 타오르다 천천히 사그라든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pure gold
air Nose
fabulous first nose, with a perfect oakiness and lots of ripe apricots again. Superb notes of small ripe oranges and acacia honey together with some whiffs of white wood smoke and charred wood. Develops on whiffs of eucalyptus leaves, white pepper, perhaps a little musk, Joy de Patou… Ah, now there’s a little camphor, bandages, embrocations… And it’s not finished, we have also some cooked strawberries, old Sauternes wine (it makes me think of a 1978 Lafaurie I had not so long ago). This nose is just magnificent!
restaurant Palate
beautiful attack again, very creamy, with a superb oak and lots of white pepper and even nutmeg. Goes on with some coffee, vanilla, caramel before it switches to camphor and eucalyptus again, and also bergamot tea. Quite minty at that. Notes of orange marmalade and toasted bread… The finish is long, perhaps a tad too tannic and drying (lots of cinnamon as well) but it’s still beautiful, with some funny hints of menthol cigarette. In short, lots of oak in this beauty but it’s superb oak so… 91 points . MUSIC – Recommended listening: fantastic Brazilian band Cabruera does a rather 'spatial' piece called Forro esferografico.mp3 . Isn't that kind of grooovy? Please buy Cabruera's music if you like it! October 2, 2005 MUSIC – Very highly recommended listening: Wazimbo & Orchestra , from Mocambique, play a peaceful and nicely repetitive Nwahulwana.mp3 . Absolutely superb... And what a voice! Please, please buy Wazimbo's music... TASTING - VERY RECENT AND VERY OLD INDIE LAPHROAIGS Laphroaig 13 yo 1992/2005 (59.5%, Signatory Cask Strength, bourbon, cask #3407, 227 bottles)
