Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 글렌글라사 특유의 해풍 미네랄과 셰리의 견과 향이 동시에 두드러진다. 29년 셰리 버트 숙성이 발전시킨 말린 자두, 가죽, 다크 캐러멜, 가벼운 시트러스 노트가 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 43.9도의 절제된 도수가 입을 부드럽게 채우며 흑설탕, 호두, 짠 미네랄, 가벼운 후추가 단단한 구조를 형성한다. 하이랜드 글렌글라사의 빈티지 셰리 보틀링 캐릭터가 또렷이 드러난다. 피니시는 셰리 단맛과 해풍 미네랄의 여운으로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
it’s got a ‘crafty’ side for sure, with a youth that shines through (porridge, pears) and some half-sweet, half-spicy oak, very ‘American’. Vanilla, ginger cake, then rather butterscotch and crème brulée. The earthy/bready touches in the background work well, this is not a new-oak bomb
restaurant Palate
a creamy mouth feel, it almost flows like honey, and a very pleasant acidic sweetness mingle with grassy oak. Citron liqueur and green tea, pepper, a few grassy eau-de-vie-ish notes (I’ve distilled spent lees on day, the result had a few similar notes), some bay leaves perhaps… The oak’s influence never stops growing and rather makes me think of European oak this time. But I doubt it’s European oak
timer Finish
rather long, really grassy and bitter, not in a bad way at all. Herb cordial. The vanilla is back in the aftertaste and comes with oranges or citrons
