Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1975년 증류해 17년을 보낸 이 보틀링은 노즈부터 셰리의 무게가 확실하게 드러난다. 진한 초콜릿과 코코아, 커피에 오래된 판지의 눅눅한 인상이 섞인다. 55.8도의 팰럿은 도수만큼 힘이 있고 설탕에 절인 과실과 귤, 잘 익은 키위가 순서대로 발전하지만 전체적으로 신선함은 다소 부족하다. 피니시는 중간 길이로 코코아와 마른 오크에 기대며 옛 병입의 성격을 그대로 보여 준다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
much more sherry, with some heavy chocolate, coca and coffee. Hints of old cardboard. Hmm… This one is even lumpier, I’d say
restaurant Palate
ah, again it’s a bit more nervous, on some notes of crystallised fruits, tangerine and even ripe kiwi. A rather nice sherry, even if the whole really lacks freshness. Old bottlings are not always better, that’s for sure, as I like the contemporary versions of this one better. 80 points . MUSIC – JAZZ - Highly recommended listening: I've been mentionning Supersax quite a few times, so it was about time to post about a very good piece they recorded more than 30 years ago: Charlie Parker's Confirmation - mp3 - 'direct from the vinyl'. Weren't they good? ( via swingera.net ) June 7, 2005 THE MALT MANIACS ON ISLAY: Very last news – Well, everything went perfectly well until we went to admire the famous Kildalton Cross, Islay's most prestigious monument (sorry about the very bad picture). Alas, since that very day, Islay will never be the same! Roll your mouse over the cross ...
