Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 기름지고 페놀릭한 인상으로 열리며 옅은 스모크와 흙, 왁스, 신선한 망고 뉘앙스가 앞선다. PX 셰리 피니시를 거친 블레어 아톨 2009답게 놀랄 만큼 강렬한 향이 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 59.7도의 힘을 실은 채 시트러스가 앞서고 올리브유와 참깨, 왁스가 두껍게 입을 채운다. 옛날식 기침 시럽 같은 뉘앙스와 다시 등장하는 망고가 인상적인 구조감을 이룬다. 피니시는 길고 왁스 같으며 옅은 금속성과 시트러스가 끝까지 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
nothing much to do with the 12-year-old, this is far oilier and more phenolic, with hints of smoke, greasiness, earth and wax, along with floor polish and paraffin, and some rather surprising notes of fresh mango to round things off beautifully. A stunning nose
restaurant Palate
superb, citrus takes the lead from the outset, soon giving way to a mad gallop of earthy and oily flavours—olive oil, sesame, a touch of metal polish and boot wax, and a splash of old-school cough syrup with a serious alcohol kick (the sort that had you back on your feet in no time). And then, the mangos return, though in rather more discreet quantity
timer Finish
fairly long, just a hint metallic and faintly peaty, yet gloriously waxy and citrusy to the last
