향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 코앞에서 살짝 흔들면 농가 마당 같은 기운이 먼저 튀어나오고 그 뒤로 훈제 생선과 마른 해초가 층을 이룬다. 숨을 들이켤수록 파라핀과 경유 같은 기름진 냄새가 스치며 19년 숙성치고는 거친 성격을 드러낸다. 조금씩 나눠 마시면 소금기가 앞장서고 감초와 홍차의 쓴맛이 뒤를 이어 60.4도의 열기를 밀어붙인다. 넘긴 다음에는 겨자 같은 매캐함이 목구멍에 한참 머문다.

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

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)
