Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 그란타운 부근, 옅은 안개에 잠긴 평원에서 자란 이 위스키답게 부드러운 곡물 캐릭터가 또렷이 드러난다. 토모어 1988년산 26년은 진한 황금빛으로 잔에 잠겨 있다. 향에는 갓 구운 패스트리와 잘 익은 사과, 바닐라가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 입에서는 꿀이 든 차와 시나몬, 부드러운 오크 스파이스가 묵직하게 입을 채우고 55.6도의 도수는 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 마른 곡물과 시트러스 여운이 단정하게 길다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
well, this baby's got nothing to do with the 1998, it's much more tertiary and herbal/gamy. I find a lot of lovage and liquorice, tobacco (including a newly opened pack of menthol cigarettes - as far as I can remember) and then rather dry kinds of raisins, not too sweet or aromatic. With water: unusual. A lot of balsamic vinegar and maybe sage and bay-leaves. Loud chamomile as well, maybe a little church incense
restaurant Palate
very rich, oily, with bags of pepper and raisins, then caramelised apples and a little tobacco again (coming out of an untipped Gauloise!) Maybe a little pastis too. With water: more tobacco, this time with dark chocolate. Maybe black cherries too?
timer Finish
long and pleasantly dry. Reminds me what some used to call 'dry' oloroso. Walnut wine and bitter herbal liqueurs in the aftertaste
