Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아메리칸 오크에서 20년을 보낸 1972년 빈티지의 이 글렌모렌지는 통이 빚어낸 매끈한 크림 질감을 처음부터 앞세운다. 향에서는 커피와 밀크 초콜릿, 갓 구운 브리오슈와 옅은 훈연, 볶은 프랄린이 부드럽게 어우러진다. 46도의 질감 속에서 맛은 꿀과 캐러멜, 브리오슈와 설탕에 절인 과실로 풍성하게 번진다. 황금빛을 띠며 여운은 캐러멜과 꿀의 둥근 단맛을 잔잔히 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ultra-smooth, creamy, caramelly and certainly not winey. Notes of coffee, milk chocolate, hot brioche, faint smokiness, faint hints of mint, hot praline, slight beefiness... Simple pleasures, certainly well crafted. Quite ‘round’, with nothing sticking out but again, it’s perfect in its own style. I think it’s nicer than the previous version anyway
restaurant Palate
very thick, very creamy, fat and oily, sweet but not cloying at all, all on honey, caramel, brioche, crystallised fruits and candy sugar. The huge sweetness is maybe a bit too much but other than that, balanced is achieved. I wouldn’t call this a lab whisky but again, it’s perfectly well crafted. Not sure it’s Single Malt Scotch Whisky but after all, who cares? (Why not be cynic and blasé too from time to time?) We had the previous Glenmo ‘sherry’ at only 72 points but we’re ready to go as far as 79 points here. Glenmorangie Quinta Ruban (46%, OB, Port finish, 2007)
