Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가까이 하면 짙은 피트 연기와 말린 과일, 요오드 향이 명확하게 드러난다. 1990년 증류된 라프로익이 셰리 버트에서 21년을 보낸 희소한 조합답게 강한 훈연과 셰리 과일이 함께 노즈를 주도한다. 56.3도의 도수가 입안을 단단하게 채우며 그을음과 건포도, 다크초콜릿의 풍미가 또렷하게 이어진다. 강한 피트와 셰리의 단맛이 부딪히며 중반의 구조를 단단하게 잡는다. 피니시는 재와 소독약 같은 약 냄새, 말린 과일이 길게 발전한다. 라프로익의 강렬한 피트에 셰리가 입혀진 보틀링이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
powerful, almost aggressive at first nosing and rather more lemony than other ‘expressions’ at first nosing. A bag of lemon drops, with a few pear and pineapple drops thrown in for good measure. This one is full of youth despite its fairly ripe age. What’s quite interesting is that the peat and the medicinal notes remain underneath all that. Unusual! With water: ah, water killed those fruits and did let the very peaty, coastal and almondy profile come through. Also whiffs of wine barrel, sauvignon… It’s even very, very faintly acetic
restaurant Palate
this time it’s an explosion of ashes and roots, even if the lemony notes are well there as well. Gentian eau-de-vie straight from the still, with quite some cigar ash as well. Do you see what I mean? With water: classic Laphroaig this time, oily, big, peaty, lemony, slightly camphory, rooty… Excellent
timer Finish
long, very moderately salty. Apple peelings
