향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 천천히 흔들면 옅은 호박빛이 잔 벽을 타고 가늘게 흐른다. 코를 가져가면 아일라 라프로익이 옛 방식으로 빚은 짙은 약 냄새와 타르, 바닷내음이 강하게 올라온다. 1980년에 병입된 15년 숙성을 한 모금 머금으면 묵직한 피트 연기와 요오드, 옅은 단맛이 혀를 휘감는다. 40도의 부드러운 도수를 삼키고 나면 짭조름한 연기와 소독약 같은 끝맛이 입안에 길게 이어진다.

this is another story. Rather playful, starting on lots of milk chocolate and vanilla. It’s clearly very oaky but doesn’t appear to be drying or tea-ish at all. Very fudgy, developing, on all sorts of roasted nuts and praline, with notes of torrefaction, fresh walnuts, nougat, mocha… Hints of rum-soaked raisins, grape juice… And then we have some bold notes of pistachio halva and dried coconut… Rather beautiful, I must say, even if we get also something slightly rubbery (nothing excessive)

lots of punch and concentration considering its age, starting on huge notes of very old sweet white wine and getting then very minty and nicely sweet and sour, like some Chinese sauces. Develops on crystallized oranges and tangerines, Grand Marnier, vanilla fudge and fruit wine (strawberry)… Something quite salty all along… Gets finally rather spicy, but it’s not only ‘oak spices’. Clove, Chinese anise, soft curry, cinnamon… Lots of body, and a long and satisfying finish on dried fruits and spices, getting just slightly drying but hey, 36 years! An excellent surprise (well, not a surprise actually, many friends already liked it a lot). 92 points . MUSIC – Recommended listening: isn't this history? Jack Kerouac 'singing' The Last Hotel.mp3 in 1959 with Steve Allen, piano and Zoot Sims (I believe) on tenor sax. It's part of Blues & Haikus, a CD that's included in the 'Joack Kerouac Collection' 3-CD set. Just superb. April 21, 2006 TASTING - TWO NEW LAPHROAIGS Laphroaig 1995 'Duke of Rothesay' (40%, OB, 2005) ‘Duke of Rothesay’ is one of Prince Charles titles, and I’ve been told this new series should replace the ‘Highrove Editions’. Let’s try it…
