Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이 강 지류 더프타운의 비옥한 평야와 글렌피딕 특유의 솔레라 보유고 전통이 15년의 시간 속에 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 잔에는 짙은 호박빛이 깊게 머문다. 향에서는 셰리·버번·새 오크의 복합적인 향신료와 잘 익은 사과, 토피가 천천히 올라온다. 입에서는 솔레라 배트의 부드러운 단맛이 묵직하게 입을 채우고 호두의 결이 잇따른다. 58.4도의 강도와 더프타운 풍토의 잔향이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it’s starts all on old bourbon, varnish and vanilla. Freshly sawn oak? Gets then grassier and liquoricy, with hints of ham. It’s actually quite complex old whisky, with also probably more oomph than most old OB’s. Nice hints of mint. It looses balance after a while, getting heavily oaky (and the ham got bolder too)
restaurant Palate
a bold mouth full, starting dry, on dried grated coconut and quite some cinnamon. Then it’s the roasted coffee beans, then sultanas and finally a little salt from the cask
timer Finish
medium long (it lost power), toasted and on quite some bitter caramel. It’s a good dry Glenfiddich, an interesting alternative to the OB’s, not worn out at all but maybe lacking a little extra-charisma. 84 points. Glenfiddich 1982 ‘Private Vintage’ (58.7%, OB for the Craigellachie Hotel, cask #3672)
