향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
아일라의 라프로익이 빚은 15년 보틀링은 강건한 피트가 한층 둥글게 다듬어진 균형의 표현으로, 잔에는 옅은 황금빛이 맑게 빛난다. 라프로익 특유의 향은 요오드와 바다 내음, 약초 같은 훈연이 또렷하게 솟는다. 40도의 부드러운 입안에서는 옅은 단맛과 그을음, 바닐라가 균형 있게 흐른다. 거친 피트가 15년의 시간 속에서 우아하게 정돈된 모습이 돋보이며, 여운에는 은은한 연기와 소금기의 잔향이 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…
