향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
아일라 북동 해안의 갯벌과 해초 냄새가 첫인상을 지배한다. 옅은 금빛 잔에서 요오드와 굴, 비 온 뒤 숲의 이끼와 고사리 향이 서늘하게 이어지고 갓 으깬 민트가 스친다. 57도의 맛은 나이에 비해 대담해 이탄과 익힌 사과, 후추가 동시에 밀려들며 쓴 아몬드가 뒤따른다. 여운은 길고 씁쓸하며 코코아 가루 같은 마른 기운을 남긴다.

extremely maritime at first nosing. Lots of seaweed, iodine, oysters… A walk on the beach, really. Very clean and pure and astoundingly fresh. If some peated whiskies are sort of farmy (cow stable, hay and all that), this Coal Ila is just the opposite. Hints of bitter almonds… Superbly elegant, that’s for sure... There are some w hiffs of deep forest after the rain, moss, fern developing after a few minutes. Really fantastic! Goes on with dill, freshly crushed mint leaves, apple skin… Sharp like a blade, I really love it

oh! This one is like no other whisky I ever had before. First, it’s very bold, which is amazing considering both its ABV and its age in glass. Second, peat, cooked apple, and pepper rush into your mouth at the very same time, with a lot of fructose and bitter almonds following very closely. It then gets very bitter indeed (grape seeds), and I don’t quite know whether I like that or not. I feel like if I just drank some turpentine! What’s sure is that it’s like no other whisky, but I must admit it’s one of the first times I taste an ‘Old’, pre-refurbishment Caol Ila, so… Hints of white rum and tequila – even mescal. The finish is long but, again, quite bitter, with also some dusty notes (flour, cocoa powder). It even sort of sparkles on the tongue! In short, the nose is totally stupendous, and perhaps the mouth is great, but I just lack reference regarding the latter. Maybe it’s an acquired taste? Okay, let’s give it a conservative rating: 90 points . Caol Ila 15 yo (57%, OB, Bulloch & Lade, orange label) - thanks for this one, Luc -
