Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 1979년 증류된 글렌피딕의 깊은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 느리게 적신다. 코끝에 가져가면 잘 익은 배와 사과, 오크의 바닐라가 단정하게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 58.3도가 혀를 데우며 꿀과 보리 엿, 가벼운 시나몬을 차례로 풀어낸다. 카덴헤드가 15년 숙성해 1995년에 병입한 이 보틀링은 스페이사이드 몰트의 정갈한 과일 풍미가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 목을 넘긴 뒤에는 꿀과 마른 오크의 여운이 잔잔히 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
buttery white wine
air Nose
wooft, petrolic, greasy, mineral and very grassy. An extremely naked style of Glenfiddich that reminds you this is a direct fired spirit after all with these big, chunky and raw distillate vibes. Could almost be an early Manager's Dram, it has this kind of powerful, high-octane refill profile. Lots of barley extract, vapour rubs, wee mechanical touches, oily rags and mineral oils. I really like this so far. With water: wonderful now with water, kumquats, bergamots, lanolin, pastry dough, hessian, eucalyptus tea. Extremely aromatic and increasingly mentholated
restaurant Palate
very firm, powerful and oily in texture. Barbour grease, embrocations, sheep wool oils, extra virgin olive oil, mineral oils, camphor and linseed oil. Did I mention oil? Also sunflower seeds, toasted brown bread and further green notes such as parsley and nettles. There is in fact a kind of austere Loire Sauvignon vibe about it. With water: I don't think it's as impressive as the nose. It's certainly very crisp, taut and austere, showing quite a lot of grass, vase water, subtle medicinal qualities and things like acid drops, crushed aspirin and wet moss. A really unusual Glenfiddich
timer Finish
good length, very chiselled, crisp, mineral, cereal, chalky and with wee hints of citrus piths and white flowers
