Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 기울이면 27년의 세월이 밴 짙은 호박빛이 잔을 적신다. 바닷가에 자리한 글렌글라사크답게 코를 가져가면 잘 익은 과일과 바닷소금, 가벼운 가죽 향이 어우러져 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 리필 셰리 호그스헤드에서 오래 숙성된 원액의 부드러운 단맛이 흐르고, 50도의 기운이 입을 감싼다. 삼키면 건포도와 짭조름한 미네랄, 묵은 오크의 끝맛이 깊게 머물러 해풍의 자취를 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
this one is a tad grassier then the Special 02, more mineral as well. Whiffs of tarmac and shoe polish, then green apples and a little linseed oil. Very nice profile, elegant and pure. With water: more hay, pu-erh tea and lemongrass. More austere than its sibling, more elegant too. More sweet oak coming through after a while. Big vanilla after fifteen minutes
restaurant Palate
we’re closer to the Special 02 in style, only with more spicy oak and a very faint dustiness. Various spices, first ginger, then dried cardamom and unusual notes of rosemary and sage. Strawberries and pears in the background. With water: more green tea, ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon. The oak gets louder
timer Finish
long, peppery and now quite lemony. Faint smokiness
