Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 조심스레 돌리면 글렌 게리 1970의 밝은 호박빛이 세월을 머금고 흔들린다. 코끝에 가져가면 옛 스타일 피트의 마른 뿌리와 약초, 타르 리큐어와 전나무 수지의 향이 끝없이 열린다. 한 모금을 오래 머금으면 43도의 두꺼운 질감 위로 장뇌와 타르, 셰리에서 온 흙내음과 다크초콜릿이 번진다. 삼킨 뒤 피트 잉걸불과 약초, 소금 감초의 여운이 완벽하게 융화되어 아주 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
bright amber
air Nose
yup! Exquisite. A pure and vivid expression of older style peat character that brings to mind 1950s Highland Park or 1960s Ardbeg. A wealth of dried up roots, herbs, ointments and embrocations. Tar liqueur, fir resins, ancient herbal extracts, roof felt and slightly mentholated tobaccos. The kind of nose that endlessly subdivides, from which you can extract any number of aromatic details. Let's not also forget waxes too!
restaurant Palate
wonderful arrival, fully on camphors, tars, peat oils (if such things do exist) but also deeply complex earthy and bitter chocolatey components from the sherry. There's also fruits as well, exotic and dark ones that manifest as crystallised and preserved. The texture is thick, with a resinous salinity, umami pastes, bouillon, meats, tar… immense, detailed, beautiful and yet also gentle thanks to the bottling strength which feels like an asset here
timer Finish
long, deep, warming and glowing with peat embers, tar, medicinal roots and herbs, earthy black teas, salted liquorice and walnutty rancio. The sherry and peat being completely fused into a perfect whole
