향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
아일라 남부 라가불린 만의 짭조름한 바닷바람과 이탄 토양이 라가불린 1978의 캐릭터를 처음부터 끝까지 관통한다. 옅은 황금빛 너머로 잘 익은 페놀과 해초, 절인 레몬의 향이 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 15년이 만든 단단한 훈연과 미네랄이 두꺼운 질감으로 입을 채우고, 64.4도 캐스크 스트렝스는 캐든헤드 보틀링의 골격을 깊게 풀어낸다. 훈연 여운이 길게 머문다.

what is striking are the obvious common roots between the old 12yo and this new 21yo. This one is more ‘direct’ at first nosing, though. Sweeter, creamier, immediately on peat plus sherry plus the assembling of both (if you see what I mean)... Simple? Indeed, but just for a few seconds, as it then starts to shoot aromatic arrows one after the other. Menthol, hazelnut oil, oxtail, prunes, orange marmalade, smoked ham, curry, mustard (hints), walnut liqueur. Slight hints of phosphorus (although not like a ‘simple’ bunch of matchsticks). And it goes on, getting wilder now... Game (just like in the old 12yo), eucalyptus (I know brands are not cool but I’d dare to say ‘Vicks’)... And then strawberry jam, sea water... Please take your time when you’ll try this one, the development is ‘very gradual’ but it’s really worth it. A fireworks show

here’s the punch that the 12yo was lacking, but also a slight ‘brutality’ at the attack. A true peaty grip in fact and an extreme ‘ampleur’. Quite some pepper, walnuts, crystallised ginger, strong liquorice, tar, mint and eucalyptus sweets again (very bold!), bitter oranges... And a powerful smokiness. The saltiness grows bolder as well... No sulphur that I can get... Wood ashes, herb liqueurs (green Chartreuse – are you listening, O.?), Havana tobacco (like when you chew your cigar). Also hints of ripe gooseberries and dried longans. And sticky toffee pudding, of course

very long, concentrated, ample, salty and liquoricy – amusing how this one makes you thirsty. We also tried it with water, it got more on mint and eucalyptus (and oranges) but other than that the general profile stayed the same. Who said this was an important bottling? 95 points. Lagavulin 15yo 1978/1993 (64.4%, Cadenhead) There are very little indie Lagavulins these days, at least by their names
