향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 손바닥으로 덮었다 열면 축축한 건초와 두엄 냄새가 훅 끼치고 곧이어 훈제 햄과 발사믹의 시큼한 결이 따라온다. 조금 더 코를 가까이 하면 캐러멜 소스와 오렌지가 올라와 거친 첫인상을 눌러 준다. 입에 넣고 잠시 두면 짠맛과 타임, 월계수 같은 마른 허브가 혀 전체를 덮고 단맛은 거의 비치지 않는다. 물을 몇 방울 떨어뜨려도 감초 뿌리의 쓴맛은 그대로 남아 입안을 오래 붙든다.

very powerful as expected, with some big, bold farmy notes. Lots of manure, wet hay… Getting then astonishingly meaty for a Coal Ila, mainly on smoked ham. Also dry seaweed, balsamic vinegar… It then calms down, switching to caramel sauce and fresh oranges, before it gets more ‘frankly’ smoky, peaty, on burning beech, with also a little apple juice and whiffs of paraffin and diesel oil. Complex, with a long development. I like it very much
restaurant 맛 (팔레트)
very strong and extremely salty and herbal. Ouch, what a beast! Lots of dried herbs (thyme, parsley, bay leaf). Very little sweetness if any. It gets very bitter (chlorophyll, propolis, herb liqueurs like Jägermeister). Lots of liquorice roots as well, tea… Highly reduced meat sauce. It reminds me the strange stuff we were used to (forced to) drink when I was a boy scout. Like coffee plus mustard plus salt. You never forget that. Anyway, let’s add a few drops of water now, perhaps it’ll become ‘easier’. Hmmm, no, it gets just a bit duller but there’s no significant improvement. The finish is very long but, you guessed it, very bitter and quite mustardy. Well, it’s note an easy one, that’s for sure. For lovers of extreme malts only – but the nose was a thrill. 84 points . Caol Ila 1993/2005 (59.9%, Adelphi, cask #6779)
