Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 벤로막 40년이 버번과 셰리 오크의 결합에서 응축해낸 잘 익은 무화과와 옅은 피트 훈연, 마른 자두 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 시간이 지나면 짙은 토피와 가죽이 발전한다. 팰럿에서는 43도의 부드러운 강도 속에서 다크 초콜릿, 향신료, 마른 오렌지 껍질이 명확하게 드러난다. 피니시는 매우 길게 이어지며 옅은 훈연과 광물성으로 마무리된다. 40년 벤로막 헤리티지의 구조감이 단단하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
a rather powerful, very grainy and malty start with hints of violets and other flowers. Gets then rather mashy and yeasty (porridge), yoghurty before a few fruity notes emerge (apples, hints of pears, green bananas). Something slightly metallic in the background and a faint soapiness but the whole isn’t unpleasant. Strange notes of smoked fish after a while
restaurant Palate
well, things are getting slightly worse now, I’m afraid. The attack is very cardboardy, weirdly orangey (rotting oranges), wrongly medicinal (aspirin)… Gets then quite malty and, again, mashy (stale beer). Well it’s frankly dirty I’d say, and the finish isn’t any better, getting even bitter and oddly salty. What’s sure is that the general level of Signatory’s core range improved dramatically during the last years! 68 points for this one. Benromach ‘Organic’ (43%, OB, 2006) A young whisky matured in new American oak – let’s hope that the later won’t overwhelm its ‘organicness’ ;-) but it’s true that the use of new oak ensures that the end product is 100% organic
