Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 호박빛이 잔 안에 따뜻하게 어린다. 글렌피딕 15년 캐스크 스트렝스는 셰리와 버번, 새 오크를 솔레라 방식으로 엮은 원액을 증류소에서 직접 손으로 병입한 보틀링이다. 향에서는 잘 익은 배와 꿀, 셰리의 마른 과일이 겹친다. 입에서는 캐러멜과 건포도, 계피의 단맛이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 59도의 도수가 풍미를 또렷이 끌어올리며 꿀과 오크의 여운이 길게 이어진다.

air Nose
not very Glenfiddich, rather bigger in fact, reminding me of the old 15 CS. There are whiffs of pencil shavings and new plank from the virgin oak but nothing too big, while it remains unusually mineral for a while, before some classic notes of stewed apples and Belgian beer start to rise after a few minutes. Hard to say if I like it or not thus far. With water: more corn syrup, more vanilla. As modern as Kraftwerk ;-)
restaurant Palate
the new oak speaks out even more. Heavy vanilla and maple syrup, you almost need as spoon to get it out of your glass. So ultra-modern, I’d say, hugely extractive and hyper-sweet, it’s almost liqueur. My palate sort of likes this but my brain doesn’t. Politics! With water: vanilla liqueur with touches of ginger and honey. Atholl Brose
timer Finish
long, with the oak’s spices being more in control
