Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오래 묵은 깊은 황금빛이 잔 바닥에 고요히 잠긴다. 해안가의 글렌글라사가 1979년 빚어 호그스헤드에서 서른세 해를 보낸 오래된 술로, 잘 익은 복숭아와 마른 꿀, 옅은 짠 내음이 부드럽게 비친다. 한 모금은 살구와 캐러멜, 향긋한 오크의 단맛이 매끄럽게 흐르고, 44.2도가 유연하다. 묵은 과일과 바다 내음의 여운이 길게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
nice start on fresh butter and apple peelings, with mineral touches to go with all that (wet gravel). It’s very grassy in fact, with more and more cut lawn, fern, leaves… Also linseed oil, graphite oil, almonds… It’s austere whisky but I enjoy this style. Noses much younger than it actually is, obvious refill hogshead. How many refills?
restaurant Palate
starts both slightly thin (because of the strength?) and interestingly oily and lemony. There’s a feeling of… basil and oregano but also some oils and nuts. Pretty unusual, especially since it tends to become more herbal and a wee-tad earthy. Chartreuse?
timer Finish
quite long, with more lemon and more bitter almonds as well. The aftertaste remains herbal
