Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
북부 하이랜드 포트소이 해안의 짭조름한 바닷바람이 글렌글래소 1984의 25년 숙성에 또렷이 깃든다. 셰리 캐스크가 짙은 호박빛을 잔에 잠근다. 향에서는 농축된 건포도와 짠 미네랄, 옅은 가죽이 또렷이 드러난다. 입을 채우는 54.2도의 풀바디가 묵직하게 흘러내리며 호두와 정향, 짭조름한 셰리 단맛이 깊게 머문다. 여운은 짠맛과 카카오가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
heavy-heavy sherry and heavy-heavy rubber, but not of the sulphurous kind. Also a lot of fresh putty, bitter oranges, gunpowder, burnt matches, tar and, well, rubber again (bicycle inner tube.) Spectacular in its own kind. Starts to develop more on kirschy notes after a moment, the ‘sherriness’ getting more evident. Blackcurrant buds plus quite some camphor and mint. Again, extremely concentrated
restaurant Palate
again, this is very heavy and very concentrated but still balanced in a certain way. Baskets of dried fruits (figs ahead, then prunes and dates), strawberry jam, orange marmalade… Gets then more on eucalyptus and mint (cough medicine), with also hints of tinned pineapples. Much less rubber on the palate – if any. Very good but you have to like heavily sherried whiskies
timer Finish
long but a little lighter than feared, with almondy notes (or stone fruits spirit.)
