Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
호박빛이 잔에 또렷이 비친다. 벤로막 2002년 빈티지를 리필 셰리 호그스헤드에서 19년 가까이 보낸 이 싱글 캐스크는 마른 무화과와 옅은 훈제, 가죽의 향이 깊게 머문다. 입에서는 56.2도의 도수가 흑설탕과 호두, 가벼운 피트 노트를 단단한 질감으로 펼친다. 벤로막 특유의 옅은 스모키 셰리 스타일이 단맛 아래 끝까지 또렷이 깃들어 있다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
yup, a gorgeous and layered cocktail of waxes, green and yellow fruits, dessert wines, resinous fir woods and then stunning citrus liqueurs, crystallised citrus rinds and dried exotic fruits. It’s this same impression of texture that the other two have, but here it’s only magnified by age in the most gorgeous and impressive way. With water: gah! It’s getting even better, more pristine, more peaty, more saline and waxier. Starting to resemble some very old Longrow or Springbank almost. Also, some stunning notes of sandalwood, crushed sea shells and aspirin
restaurant Palate
stunning mix of waxes, dry, salty peat smoke, herbal teas, ointments, camphor and mineral oils. Like a lot of these old school profiles, it makes you think of great, aged dry white wines. It also makes me think of some brilliant old Glenlochy funnily enough. Given time it also becomes a bit more honeyed. With water: amazing, a perfectly cohesive, singular profile. A stunning balance of waxes, dry peat smoke, camphor, medicines and a beautifully taut mineral profile
timer Finish
long, bone-dry, superbly mineral and waxy. Alighting more on Clynelish finally I’d say
