Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 아드벡 필리지 2007의 드라이한 셰리가 그리는 호두와 커리, 강황의 향에 타르와 매연이 가세하며 명확하게 드러난다. 14년을 보낸 이 아일라 몰트는 입에서 레몬과 그레이프프루트, 그을음과 훈제 청어에 커리와 생강 스파이스가 짜임새 있게 발전한다. 51.6도의 도수가 질감에 힘을 싣지만 활발한 오크가 구조를 이끈다. 피니시는 생강과 카다멈, 커피 원두가 길고 스파이시하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
the very dry sherry is very obvious in this context, that is to say after the ‘X-fill’ versions that we just had. I’m sure it wouldn’t have been this loud, had I tried it ‘solo’. That translates into a combination of fresh walnuts, curry and probably curcuma, which is kind of funny, while the original distillate is a little shier. Having said that, the manzanilla makes it kind of more complex than the others, but also less ‘Ardbeg’. Whiffs of exhaust fumes and tar. With water: ginger liqueur, vanilla and sawdust. Some newish oak comes through
restaurant Palate
the difference is even more striking on the palate. There is some lemon, a sootiness, grapefruits, kippers and such but also these walnuts, this curry again, notes of bitterish liquorice wood, some raw tobacco and something I’m not too fond of because that screams ‘newish oak!’, ginger. With water: indeed, it’s some pretty active oak that does most of the talking. Ginger, curry and other spices
timer Finish
long, spicy, gingery. Cardamom powder, tannins, coffee beans, maybe hints of bacon
