향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 프리마 앤 울티마 라가불린 1997의 깊은 호박빛이 잔 벽을 따라 흐른다. 코끝에 가져가면 리필 유로피언 오크 부트 특유의 가죽 위로 라가불린 고유의 짭조름한 피트와 훈제된 시트러스가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 한 모금을 머금으면 50.7도의 균형 잡힌 알코올이 입천장을 덮고 묵은 셰리, 짙은 연기, 다크 초콜릿이 풀린다. 삼킬 때 짙은 재의 잔향이 길게 따라온다.

bang. In the style of the first 21 yo, just a little brighter, and a little less fat and sherried. First the greatest pu-erh tea (best wild tree on the best mountain, guarded by soldiers and all that) plus cigar ashes and smoke, then all things found in an old abandoned cellar (rusty pieces of iron, plaster, dust, saltpetre, soot…), then ‘a walk on a beach’ (with a wet dog, I’m sorry, dogs), then several smaller aromas, from beef jerky to cured ham, via crystallised oranges and just ‘brand new leather jacket straight from Pakistan’. Right, or Ventimiglia. And a barbecue. With water: goes towards precious woods, humidor, old Jag, fireplace, Barbour grease, porridge-and-mind, bandages…

I totally hate it that it would be so good. Feels a little younger than 25, though (perhaps 18 or 20?), but the fat brightness, or the zesty richness are impressive. It’s really great that it would walk on this thin line, just when you think it’s fattish it starts to become lemony, and when you think it’s sharp and angular it starts to shoot fat tarry oranges. And tobacco and leather. Bugger! With water: happy memories of the very first 16 yo, the first Classic Malt. A brainwave. Moroccan mint tea, cider vinegar, ashes, peppermint… It’s hard to detect what comes from the wood(s), but I especially love these notes of bitter oranges mixed with coriander and cardamom. Wood or spirit? Both?

long, and unexpectedly grassy. Very grassy, and leathery, and leafy. The signature is pretty ‘austere’, but the lemon in the aftertaste just lifts it again
