Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아일라 남부 킬다톤 해안의 거센 바람과 짙은 피트 늪지가 아드벡의 캐릭터를 키운다. 1975년 25년의 잔에는 짙은 황금빛이 잠겨 있고 향은 바다 소금과 진한 피트 연기, 타르, 약상자가 켜켜이 깔린다. 입에는 50%의 묵직함이 흐르며 훈제 햄과 정향, 검은 감초, 시트러스 껍질이 발전한다. 25년이 거친 면을 다듬었지만 아드벡의 야성은 여전히 깊게 머문다. 여운은 식어가는 모닥불과 미네랄이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
golden
air Nose
pure peat smoke. It's like walking through a kiln in full operation, with salmon, sorrel, mint, and apples in your pockets. But who would do that? Ashes and bacon in the background. It's an Ardbeg with surgical precision on the nose. With water: of course, at this strength, you only add a couple of drops of water, just to relax everything. And it works wonderfully, releasing old leather, horse saddle, marrow, honeys, aged Chardonnay, little candied citrus fruits, ashes... Who said Ardbeg was just about peat?
restaurant Palate
there's an essential, very compact, candied, concentrated aspect, focused on citrus and smokes. There's not much more to say, it's just perfect. With water: fruit jellies, quince, frozen service berries, medlar, mead (nectar of the gods), candied kumquat, overripe apple
timer Finish
medium length but of infinite delicacy. Who smoked all these wonderful jams? An outstanding aftertaste of every kind of pepper there is
