Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 벗을 거쳐 스타오샤 올로로소 옥타브에서 한 번 더 마무리한 숙성이 인버고든 1986의 결을 독특하게 잡았다. 37년을 보낸 그레인 위스키답게 향에서는 코코넛과 바닐라, 옅은 셰리의 단내가 부드럽게 번진다. 입에서는 곡물의 둥근 단맛 위로 올로로소가 남긴 견과와 가죽의 풍미가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 46도의 도수가 깊은 호박빛 너머로 달큰하고 매끄러운 여운을 길게 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
copper gold
air Nose
a similar style to be sure, but this time with a bit more incense, alongside peonies and dried flowers (including rose petals). It’s also quite earthy, like rich dark potting soil, and ends with a hint of cedarwood that evokes an ancient Buddhist temple. Time to cue up the Great Compassion mantra, aka Da Bei Zhou… “I continually adore the one who dispels all fears…”
restaurant Palate
very unusual, deeply earthy, with mushrooms, coffee liqueur, chocolate, fermenting raisins, and roots, giving it a sort of ‘meditation whisky’ vibe—whatever that might mean
timer Finish
long, with a fermenting quality like a dark Bière de Garde. Pure chocolate lingers in the aftertaste
