Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 카론 마을에 있던 임페리얼은 이미 문을 닫고 헐린 증류소로, 남은 원액마다 희소한 가치를 지닌다. 1995년 빈티지를 호그스헤드에서 20년 길러낸 이 위스키는 맑은 황금빛을 보인다. 향에서는 잘 익은 사과와 보리 사탕, 가벼운 꿀이 산뜻하게 올라오고 입에서는 50.8도가 바닐라와 과수원 과일의 단맛을 부드럽게 채운다. 여운은 맥아의 고소함과 오크의 잔향이 깔끔하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
ah, this one is particularly mineral and even chalky, and perhaps less a fruit bomb than other 1995s from the same excellent bottlers. It’s even, as they now say in wine, rather saline. There’s also a little rubbed mint and perhaps notes of band-aid, as well as a good deal of cut grass. So, rather more austere than others, with rather green plums at the fruit department. With water: gets a little rounder and easier, with ‘sweeter’ fruits. My beloved mirabelles! Orange juice
restaurant Palate
more fruits! Lemon-forward muesli or something, many acidic fruits (green gooseberries and greengages), and a tart, rather biting side that certainly not unpleasant. Did they distil muscadet? With water: once again it gets rounder, without losing its lovely vivacity
timer Finish
medium, zesty, citrusy… Grassier aftertaste
