Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 1990년에 병입된 글렌 기리 15년의 깊은 호박빛이 잔을 느리게 적신다. 코끝으로 가져가면 옛 하이랜드 몰트다운 말린 과일과 꿀, 옅은 흙내음이 차곡차곡 올라온다. 한 모금 머금어 굴리면 43도의 부드러운 술이 오렌지와 보리, 향신료의 단맛을 드러낸다. 삼킨 뒤 오래된 보틀링 특유의 묵직하고 마른 여운이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
golden bronze-ish/copperish amber (what?)
air Nose
whilst 40% are often too weak, 43% sometimes work beautifully and this is a clear example. 100-year-old Yquem, precious palo-cortado (I remember some crazy old decanters by Barbadillo), box of old Cuban cigars, 'old Jag', old books, dark pollen, metal polish, pinecone smoke, balsa wood and incense sticks, tiny white pineapples (the name escapes me), dried bananas… This is really funny; it tends to move towards fab old rums. Very old agricoles?
restaurant Palate
this is so totally funny and unusual! There's a very specific mix of tropical fruits, for example, these tiny litchis, small bananas, pomegranates for sure, wild strawberries (and the liqueur made thereof)… and then off to smokier pastures, with black tobacco, black tea, raw chocolate, even grilled beef, all that with a tiny bit of violet sweet in the background. But not that one
timer Finish
almost long, rather more on coffee and chocolate, with more old sherries and walnut wines and cigars and… Well, it's time we called the Anti-Maltoporn Brigade, don't you think. I'll still mention some wild strawberries making sheep's eyes in the aftertaste – with a wink
