Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 오래된 황금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 느리게 흐른다. 코를 가까이 가져가면 44년 묵은 버번 호그스헤드의 꿀과 밀랍, 잘 익은 복숭아 향이 은은하게 올라온다. 1967년 증류한 토민툴을 한 모금 굴리면 41.5도의 절제된 힘이 부드러운 과일과 바닐라, 마른 풀을 혀에 펼친다. 넘긴 뒤에는 꿀과 오래된 오크가 잔잔히 잦아든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
what’s impressive at first nosing is the freshness at such old age, even if it’s no aromatic bomb (like other distilleries can become with age). Having said that, what’s really pleasant here is the way many resinous notes mingle with some light honey and fruit jams. Reminds me of some old style Chartreuse and of some herbal teas that we do brew for Christmas in Germanic countries (with aniseed, cinnamon, liquorice, orange peel, cloves…) Also hints of old wine cellar. Let’s see whether the palate is dead or not
restaurant Palate
no obvious acridness although it’s woody whisky, which is normal. Earl grey tea and orange cake, then plum pie with a lot of cinnamon powder. Touches of honeydew and finally, quite some liquorice wood
timer Finish
not very long and rather spicy but not excessively drying, which is almost a miracle. Some mint as often
