Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 킬호만 특유의 광물성 피트와 젖은 천, 분필, 바닷물 향이 두드러지며 요오드와 레몬즙이 뒤를 받친다. 퍼스트필 버번에서 11년 숙성한 이 아일라 몰트는 55.3도의 힘이 결정 같은 피트를 날카롭게 밀어 올린다. 팰럿은 부드럽게 열린 뒤 깨끗한 연기와 나무 재, 레몬즙, 조개 같은 짭조름함이 단단한 골격으로 전개된다. 젊지만 정교한 균형이 선명하다. 피니시는 길고 재와 기름기, 피트가 예리하게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale straw
air Nose
if there were such a thing as smoked mineral water I suspect it would smell like this. A lovely mix of wet fabrics, chalk, beach pebbles, smoky wort, grist and pure seawater. Ink, iodine drops, lemon juice and that kind of pure, crystalline peat that’s so often to be found in contemporary Islay whiskies. With water: drier, more ashy and with rather a lot of kelp and a pretty brittle minerality
restaurant Palate
surprisingly soft on arrival, lots of clean smoke, light wood ash notes, more lemon juice, raw shellfish, iodine, chives, parsley, coal smoke and wee petrol notes. With water: sharp, clean, raw lemon juice, sheep wool, antiseptic, lime juice, mercurochrome and brine
timer Finish
long, ashy, petrolic, blade-like, peaty and precise
