Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
하이랜드의 글렌글래소가 1978 빈티지를 호그스헤드에서 30년 길러 스페셜리티 드링크스가 더 싱글 몰트 오브 스코틀랜드로 풀어낸 보틀링이다. 노즈에서는 잘 익은 망고와 파인애플, 오래된 밀랍 노트가 가장 먼저 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿에서는 열대 과실의 농축된 단맛이 중심을 잡고 마른 허브와 가벼운 가죽이 윤곽을 그린다. 49.8퍼센트의 알코올은 무게보다 균형에 기여한다. 피니시는 망고와 마른 오크의 떫은 단맛으로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
bigger, rawer, rougher. That was to be expected, this baby should be quite younger than the AnCnocs. I cannot not think of some very young Caol Ila. Ashes, paraffin, lemons, fresh putty and seashells. Where’s the distillery again? And the warehouses? With water: much more ‘youth’. Eau-de-vie-ish
restaurant Palate
the ‘young’ fruits play first fiddles, especially pears and pineapples, which is an obvious sign of youth. On the other hand, there’s a sweet creaminess (barley syrup) that balances that, with also touches of ginger liqueur and honeydew. Smoky pears. With water: nice. The barley talks, and there’s quite some honey too
timer Finish
a very funny finish and retro-olfaction all on smoked salmon and limejuice
