Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 남안의 거친 파도와 피트 늪을 정면으로 맞는 아드벡이 23년을 채운 트웬티 섬싱이다. 잔에는 옅은 황금빛이 어린다. 오랜 세월이 강렬한 피트를 부드럽게 길들여 타르, 훈제, 레몬, 옅은 셰리의 단맛이 섬세하게 솟는다. 46.3도의 기름진 질감으로 입에서는 잿빛 연기와 다크초콜릿, 소금이 또렷하게 흐른다. 여운에는 숙성된 피트와 미네랄이 부드럽게 깔린다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
A saline style of peat to begin, tarry, pretty typical 1990s, pre-Glenmorangie style Ardbeg, creosote-dominated and pretty oily. Lots of peat embers, slightly briny, black pepper, green olives, notes of pitch and salted fish. In time it moves more towards coastal freshness and stony minerals with a touch of lemon oil and cough syrup. Gets more medicinal as well, iodine and TCP. Very good
restaurant Palate
Lots of oiliness, linseed oil, cod liver oil, hessian, pretty salty, a resinous and grippy salinity. Olive oil, brine, anchovies, sardines, fresh chopped herbs, more black pepper and medicine. Mercurochrome and antiseptic with bonfire ash and dried seaweed
timer Finish
good length, bright, coastal and fresh, the saltiness lifts everything and keeps it all alive with tar and gentian notes in the aftertaste
