Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
코발 캐스크에서 8년을 보낸 이력이 이 블레어 아톨 2015 에이콘 보틀링에 기름지고 페놀릭한 개성을 새겼다. 향에는 연기와 흙, 왁스와 파라핀의 내음에 뜻밖의 싱그러운 망고가 겹쳐 올라온다. 46도의 입에서는 감귤이 앞장서고 올리브유와 참깨, 금속 광택 같은 풍미가 거칠게 번진 뒤 망고가 다시 돌아온다. 황금빛 뒤로 금속성과 왁스, 감귤의 여운이 길고 페놀릭하게 이어진다.
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
