Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑은 금빛이 잔 안에서 또렷하게 빛난다. 1970년 무렵 병입된 옛 글렌피딕은 잘 익은 배와 풋사과, 보리의 달큰한 향을 단정하게 풀어낸다. 한 모금은 과일의 단맛과 꿀, 가벼운 오크가 흐르지만 70도에 이르는 강한 도수가 혀끝을 뜨겁게 자극한다. 8년이라는 숙성과 높은 병입 도수가 옛 스페이사이드 몰트의 날것 같은 힘을 그대로 전한다. 여운은 잘 익은 과일과 마른 곡물로 이어지며 강건한 끝맛을 남긴다.

air Nose
nice OBE, with some kind of metallic candle wax and then various cakes and herbal teas. It’s shy and whispering after all those years in glass, but it’s still there. Chamomile, shoe polish, old Sauternes, old papers… ‘Wandering in the attic.’
restaurant Palate
oh great! It’s even punchy, phenolic, ashy, slightly meaty, with a farmy side that’s nowhere to be found in modern Glenfiddich. But that may come from bottle ageing indeed (or glass/metal leaching, whatever) since I used to drink Glenfiddich in the late 1970s, and believe me it was nowhere near this very nice old young thing. Beautiful notes of grapefruit juice with a little soot and wax
timer Finish
not very long, and certainly not clean. A bit disjointed – which is normal – with something dusty and too cardboardy. But the salty shoe polish in the aftertaste is rather impressive. Kind of
