Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 빙글 돌리면 44년을 견딘 인버고든 1972 싱글 그레인의 짙은 황금빛이 잔벽을 따라 두꺼운 다리를 그린다. 코끝에 가져가면 그레인 위스키답게 옅은 코코넛과 바닐라, 그리고 묵은 옥수수의 단내가 부드럽게 인사한다. 한 모금을 머금으면 49.4도가 부드럽게 입천장을 덮으며 캐러멜과 토피, 미세한 시트러스가 굴러간다. 삼키고 나면 40년 넘는 시간이 빚어낸 그레인 특유의 부드러운 우드 스파이스가 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
some varnish and mercurochrome at first nosing, which is a little strange indeed since this ought to be 44 or 45 years old, but there’s a much more delicate development, with soft coconut and vanilla cakes and wee bits of hay and moss. It’s all a little shy, which I find a little bizarre. No off-notes at all, having said that, rather more tropical fruits after one minute. Tiny mangos, perhaps. And, wait, after five long minutes, cigars!
restaurant Palate
ah, now we’re talking. This is totally tropical, perhaps some oak-aged high-end pina colada? Some much fortified pina colada
timer Finish
medium, rather more on cakes. Always quite some coconut
