Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
딘스톤이 1977년부터 16년을 보낸 시간이 오크 캐스크를 거쳐 맑은 황금빛으로 잔에 어린다. 코끝에는 잘 익은 배와 보리, 옅은 꿀의 향이 산뜻하게 피어오르고, 그 뒤로 시리얼의 고소함이 따른다. 한 모금 머금으면 시리얼과 캐러멜, 가벼운 시트러스의 단맛이 부드럽게 번지고, 70년대 증류가 남긴 단단한 결이 혀 위에 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 55도의 기운이 곧게 흐르며, 마지막에는 곡물과 오크의 따뜻한 여운이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
Gold
air Nose
This one is more buttery but also much greener and more ‘organic’. These notes of geraniums in a warm greenhouse spring to nostril. However, there is also a shared bready quality between this one and the 1997. But here you also have more wax, more wild flowers such as daisies and also a fatter and richer cereal quality. It’s still globally a rather austere and unsexy style (do the laws of physics allow such a thing as a ‘sexy Deanston’ in this universe? Discuss...) However, I do enjoy the richer and more waxy, oily and textured style of this one - it’s reminiscent of good old school highland malt whisky. With water: more butter, olive oil, bung cloth and a soft lamp oil note. Very lovely!
restaurant Palate
Starts good on digestives and malt bread but then veers oddly towards warm plastic and plasticine, taking a detour on the way at porridge, chalk and white pepper. It’s a tad acrid and a bit unusual I have to say (you’re in Deanston pal!). With water: at first it seems water sorts things out a bit with some nice watercress notes but then it swings back to acridity and plasticine. A little burnt bread, muesli and milky porridge. Tough
timer Finish
Medium in length and rather peppery and still a bit acrid and plasticky
