Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
붉은 기 도는 호박빛이 잔에 따뜻하게 감돈다. 킬호만 로흐 고름 2024는 올로로소 셰리 버트에서 9년을 보낸 아일라 팜 증류소의 보틀링으로, 진한 셰리와 또렷한 피트가 맞물린다. 코에는 장작 연기와 말린 과일, 다크 초콜릿이 어우러진다. 46도의 입은 단단하게 차오르며 훈연과 건포도, 짭조름한 미네랄이 깊게 머문다. 여운에는 그을린 오크와 달큰한 연기가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
straight young peat and little sherry influence at first nosing, it’s obviously not been finished in some first fill sherry cask. It’s soon to get rather oily after that, with notes of paraffin oil, oilcloth, fresh putty and then some ‘traditional’ coastal notes. Clams and fresh almonds would be the combo here. Also whiffs of coal smoke and just hints of antiseptic. It’s not very complex yet but the cleanliness is pleasant, it’s already lost all the rough edges that were quite obvious in the newmake that we tried at the distillery back then. Just hints of wet sheep (sorry, sheep, we love you almost as much as we love dogs)
restaurant Palate
the attack is rather sweeter and rounder, maybe it’s the sherry, with a peat that’s not as omnipowerful as expected but little fruitiness either. There are also notes of olives, that we sometimes get in young peaty whiskies, as well as quite some saltiness. Distinct ‘kipperiness’. Globally quite balanced
timer Finish
long, more raisiny now, with a little cardamom in the aftertaste and a ‘lingering peat’ (but why does peat always linger, I ask?)
