Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
코를 대면 강렬한 피트 연기와 타르, 바다 내음이 먼저 인상을 남긴다. 아드벡 1975의 18년 숙성으로 올드 스타일 아일라 특유의 묵직하고 기름진 훈연이 또렷하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 그을음과 후추, 옅은 단맛이 발전하며 53.9도의 도수가 강한 골격을 세운다. 피니시는 마른 재와 소금기로 길게 끌린다. 빈티지 아드벡의 거친 골격이 인상에 남는 보틀링이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark gold
air Nose
it's not one of the classic old Ardbegs in the same series as it starts more on sultanas, bacon and honey sauce. Even less 'big peat' than in the Alligator. Goes on with a little sour apple juice, leather, walnuts, malt (beer) and something quite rubbery (bicycle inner tube) as well as a little mercurochrome. With water: more rubber, more tarmac and more kelp. Bitter chocolate as well. Also 'funny' whiffs of roses and patchouli
restaurant Palate
I find the sweetness a bit weird here, it's unusually fruity in fact. Litres of raspberry eau-de-vie - in an old Ardbeg! I quite like that, it's just that it's so uncommon… After that, more leathery tones, raisins, orange drops, gentian spirit, toffee… And something surprisingly metallic (silver spoon). Really an unusual one. With water: still a little weird. Orange and ginger liqueurs - I mean a mix thereof
timer Finish
long, first dry, then perfumy. Raspberry drops and heavy liquorice. Strange!
