Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 응축된 옅은 호박빛이 잔에 잔잔히 잠겨 있다. 노즈에는 사라진 로즈뱅크 특유의 흰 꽃과 잘 익은 사과, 옅은 헤더 꿀이 가장 먼저 올라오고 그 뒤로 마른 풀과 흰 후추, 옅은 시트러스가 따라붙는다. 입에서는 캐러멜라이즈된 배와 마른 보리 빵, 옅은 꿀이 부드러운 질감으로 흐르고 52.6도의 알코올이 21년 숙성의 결을 잘 받쳐준다. 여운은 마른 견과와 옅은 시트러스 껍질로 길게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
there is indeed a slightly ‘Daftmillian’ aspect emerging here. Lots of freshly cut grasses, breads, lemon peel, butter, chives, cereals, hints of plain yoghurt, yeasty sourdough starter, delicate cough medicine notes and plain porrdige. All very good and rather pure and straight. With water: develops more towards plain cereals, plasticine, chalk and a kind of funny light cheesy note. Boiled sweets, hints of linseed oil and trail mix. Gets a little more herbal with time, touches of mint and marjoram
restaurant Palate
sunflower oil, more lemon in the shape of lemon balm and lemon sweeties. Parsley, chalk, plain breakfast cereals, nutmeg and hints of pine needle. With water: better with water now I think. Bigger, fatter, oilier and more ‘full’ with these notes of white pepper, cider apple, dry mead, green banana and more freshly baked breads
timer Finish
good length, all on apples, cornflakes, mint julep, light ointments and a touch of soot
