Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 초반에 버터와 비누 같은 뉘앙스를 보이지만 곧 캄포르와 빻은 보리의 흙내가 이를 상쇄한다. 물을 더하면 오래된 베이클라이트 같은 뉘앙스와 함께 날카로운 밀랍 광물감이 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 56.1도의 도수에서 옅은 훈연과 레몬, 광물성 왁스가 순서대로 발전한다. 피니시는 중간 길이로 왁시하며 갓 구운 빵의 온기가 남는다. 화이트 와인빛 색조가 버번 캐스크의 절제된 개입을 보여 준다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine

let’s remember that those were not the easier vintages, and that the distillate improved very mucho after the early 1990s. So, this is surprisingly nice given that context, perhaps a little buttery/soapy indeed, but there’s some lovely camphor for compensation, as well as some earthy crushed barley. As if the distillery would have also mashed a little field earth beside the malt (of course I know that would be impossible). With water: really a turning point. Some plastic, or say bakelite from the olden days, and already a sharper, cleaner waxy mineralness. Very interesting
restaurant Palate
ah, good. Some smokier Springbank, with good lemon and good mineral wax, a style that would then lead to the magnificent 1993-today vintages. With water: yep, swims very well, but one drop will suffice
timer Finish
medium, waxy, with a little fresh bread
