향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
아일라 남부 해안의 거친 풍토를 그대로 머금은 아드벡, 1998년 증류한 20년산이다. 섬을 휘감는 바닷바람과 피트가 처음부터 끝까지 캐릭터를 관통한다. 20년의 숙성이 거친 기운을 다듬어 잔에는 맑은 황금빛이 어린다. 그을린 피트와 요오드, 레몬 껍질이 향에서 또렷이 드러나고 입에서는 짭조름한 연기 위로 바닐라와 후추가 번진다. 재와 소금기가 뒤섞인 여운이 길고 단단하게 남는다.

of course this is a different league but there is kind of a toastiness at very first nosing, that makes for sort of a receptacle for all the superb aromas that are about to assault your nostrils: roasted nuts but also lots of fruits (mostly very ripe mangos and bananas but also coconuts) and lots of honey, beeswax, pollen… The oak brings a delicate sourness to the whole. Also hints of tobacco (say like a freshly opened pack of Camels) and leather polish, orange juice and whiffs of wood smoke, paprika and soft curry. Really complex and hugely enjoyable, with maybe something slightly feminine (sorry Martine)
restaurant 맛 (팔레트)
lots happening right at first sip, with again lots of mangos (or rather mango yoghurt), dried pears and orange marmalade. Really full-bodied yet quite delicate but getting then very spicy, on cinnamon, coriander, white pepper… Maybe the wood and its tannins start to take a little too much control after a while, the malt getting slightly too bitter and ‘green’ (un-sugared green tea) but still no big deal. Medium long finish, back on bananas and vanilla plus again quite some green tea and malt… An excellent, classy Glenfiddich, especially on the nose. The palate is just slightly too woody in the middle for my taste but just excellent otherwise. 90 points. MUSIC - Recommended listening - Katell Keineg and The Floors do Love Song To My Guru.mp3 . What a great little song - please buy Katell's music! (I'm a fan). September 27, 2006 TASTING – TWO NEW OFFICIAL ARDBEGS Ardbeg 1990 'Airigh Nam Beist' (46%, OB, 2006) A brand new version that should be steadily available from now on. Like Uigeadail, the unpronouceable name is a lake's. Sort of replacement for the 17yo I guess…
