Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 첫 순간부터 복합적이며 마르멜로와 살구 파이, 여러 겹의 꿀 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 금속 광택제와 밀랍, 담뱃잎이 그 위에 얹히고 유칼립투스와 백단향의 서늘한 결이 뒤를 받친다. 46도의 팰럿은 기름지고 미끈하며 소금물과 레몬즙, 말린 과일이 순서대로 발전한다. 11년 숙성이라고 보기 어려운 구조감이 이 싱글 캐스크의 핵심이다. 피니시는 허브 리큐어와 향신료가 교차하며 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
this is fabulous. Complex right from the start, with this perfectly balanced combination of fruity and phenolic notes that are only to be found in old Highland Parks beside Springbank, in my experience. At random, we have quinces, metal polish, apricot pie, various honeys, wax polish, tobacco, leather, a little brine, liquorice, plums, figs, mint, dates, eucalyptus, camphor, incense, wood and peat smoke, sandalwood, coal… Actually, there’s everything. Glorious and subtle, one of the best from the roaring sixties
restaurant Palate
it’s great that there isn’t much sherry involved as this wonderful palate proves that the venerable distillery recently got back to their older style. All for the better! There’s this very peculiar weirdness that’s so exactly beautiful, with a greasy and oily side, there’s also a lot of brine mixed with lemon juice, some leather, bags of dried fruits, motor oil, a little fudge, herbal teas aplenty, a pleasantly bitter sappiness and then the trademark bitter oranges. Oops, forgot to mention fresh peppercorns
timer Finish
maybe not the longest ever but it’s got this Chartreusy side that’s so entrancing. Herbal liqueurs and spices plus smoother dried fruits. A wee soapiness in the aftertaste but that’s 100% normal here
