Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스코틀랜드에서 가장 오래된 증류소로 알려졌던 리틀밀은 로우랜드 보울링에 있던 폐쇄 증류소로, 호그스헤드에서 24년을 보낸 이 1989 빈티지는 부드러운 유산을 전한다. 잔에는 맑은 황금빛이 돌고, 코에는 잘 익은 멜론과 레몬, 꿀 바른 비스킷의 향이 가볍게 오른다. 50도의 입안에서는 시트러스와 보리 단맛, 옅은 풀향이 깔끔하게 번진다. 로우랜드다운 섬세함을 중심으로, 여운은 맑은 곡물과 흰 꽃이 부드럽고 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
this is funny, this one is very fruity as well but much firmer than the Fässle, which makes it smell peaty and medicinal in comparison. Of course it’s not, but those are the joys of ‘comparing your drams’. So, no peat and no medicinal notes either, rather some grassier fruits, which would actually be exactly the same fruits as in the Fässle, only a little less ripe. Oh well…
restaurant Palate
exactly the same feeling, some medicinal touches (in comparison) and more grass, more skins, more peelings, more leaves, more stems… And that works brilliantly again. It’s just sharper and zestier, and maybe a little more mineral as well
timer Finish
long, this time with wee notes of Schweppes and aspirin
