Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 33년의 시간이 깃든 호박빛 액체가 잔 벽을 따라 천천히 흘러내린다. 코끝에 가져가면 캠벨타운 특유의 짭조름한 미네랄과 버번 오크에서 우러난 바닐라가 가장 먼저 인사한다. 한 모금을 머금으면 55도의 힘이 농축된 단맛과 함께 입천장을 천천히 덮으며 로컬 발리 보리 본연의 구수한 견과류 풍미가 따라온다. 삼키고 나면 캠벨타운의 흙내와 미세한 염분이 입 안에서 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine (the palest modern batch of the old ‘12’ I ever came across)
air Nose
oh, this is very close to the older CV! Wet newspaper, paraffin, wet stones, lamp oil, pencil lead, cut grass, wet chalk, cold ashes... It’s complex whisky, but with very little fruitiness nor wood influence if any
restaurant Palate
this is interesting, it’s almost the same whisky as the first CV. Why would I bother to write new lines then? Let’s just copy-and-paste from above... ... big, ‘ancient style’, oily, grassy, bitter... Little wood influence (nor sweetness) it seems, but really a huge grassiness and big notes of small cider apples (and the peelings), chives, lemon marmalade... A big whisky indeed
timer Finish
rather long, on apples, pears, wax and green pepper, with maybe just touches of salt. I like this one for its wildness
