Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들면 깊은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 느리게 흘러내린다. 코끝에 가져가면 꿀과 잘 익은 과일, 묵은 오크 향이 부드럽게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 40년을 채운 스트라스아일라의 둥근 단맛이 혀 위로 매끄럽게 퍼진다. 입에 굴리면 오크 캐스크가 남긴 향신료와 토피가 단맛 뒤로 천천히 이어진다. 1967년 증류의 옛 스페이사이드다운 깊이와 부드러움이 함께 또렷하다. 삼킨 뒤 꿀과 오크의 은은한 단맛이 목 뒤로 오래 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
take the same notes as in the 8yo and add a little vanilla and nutmeg, probably from a more active cask and you get a very, very good peated vodka. Wait, it keeps developing, with hints of linseed oil, soot, liquid tar, slight hints of bandages, embrocations... Also hints of kirsch, black olives... Much more complex than we first thought
restaurant Palate
punchy and wild like a bunch of witches (sure, Serge, sure...), maybe a tad spirity at the attack but then it’s a blast of peat and tar, with a profile that’s very similar to the DL’s this time, with maybe just a little more salt. Also maybe a tad less dry
timer Finish
very long, very peaty, very ashy and very smoky, with even a little aniseed. The trap is that it’s very drinkable... Witch stuff indeed. Frightening
