Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 옅은 금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 부드럽게 흐른다. 코를 가까이 가져가면 1968년 증류한 오래된 크라겐모어의 마른 풀과 꿀, 잘 익은 사과 향이 은은하게 올라온다. 40도로 절제된 이 위스키를 한 모금 굴리면 맥아 단맛과 시트러스, 옅은 향신료가 가볍게 혀에 번진다. 넘긴 뒤에는 꿀과 마른 과일이 부드럽고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
starts well in the style of the 'regular Cragganmore 12, on an orange cake that just came out of the oven, or is it Mirabelle pie? Also whiffs of patchouli and dandelions, honey and then more cake and a little caramel. Also hints of roots, leaves… It's all relatively light so far, but balanced and quite complex
restaurant Palate
it's true that 40% vol. can be a little weakish by today's standards, and this one isn't big. Having said that, its notes of roasted nuts, toasted cake and malted barley are most pleasant. There's also a little chocolate, ginger and honeydew. As I said, it's light but well balanced
timer Finish
a little short but the salty touches are amusing. Quite some liquorice as well, a little mint, green tea… Dired figs in the aftertaste
