Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가까이 하면 글렌글라소다운 해안가 몰트의 옅은 소금기와 잘 익은 과실, 꿀 향이 먼저 두드러진다. 팰럿은 46도답게 부드럽지만 26년 숙성의 바닐라와 열대 과실, 향신료가 명확하게 발전한다. 피니시는 오크의 단맛과 짭조름함이 길게 이어진다. 1983년 빈티지답게 글렌글라소 특유의 우아한 질감과 장기 숙성의 구조감이 또렷하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
starts rather malty and slightly toasted, with notes of, er, toasts, cornflakes, caramel and vanilla fudge as well as faint gingery notes (like speculoos). Nice herbal notes behind all that, hints of orange zests, hawthorn… Gets then more and more ‘oriental’, that is to say more and more on orange blossom water, baklavas, spicy honey… Very nice development, it started a tad ‘mundane’ but never stopped getting more complex and aromatic. In other words, needs time if you don’t want to miss it
restaurant Palate
good, smooth attack but there’s also quite some wood, an obvious tannicity and notes of strong tea that are very noticeable… What’s nice is that they come with some mint and liquorice, which soften the tannins in some way. Keeps improving after that, with some lemon marmalade and touches of coriander
timer Finish
rather long, with more pepper. Malty signature, a faint smokiness and quite some liquorice
