Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
셰리 캐스크에서 18년을 보낸 캐퍼도닉 1977의 시간이 향과 입에 사라진 증류소 특유의 잘 다듬어진 깊이를 새긴다. 향에서는 마른 건포도와 가죽, 부드러운 토피가 또렷이 드러나고, 셰리 우드의 흙냄새가 그 사이로 비친다. 입에서는 다크 초콜릿과 호두, 옅은 시나몬이 57.7도라는 도수에 실려 묵직하게 입을 채운다. 짙은 적갈색이 잔에 잠겨 있고, 마른 시가 잎과 우드 스파이스의 여운이 길고 깊게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
power chocolate and coffee! Extremely oloros-ish, which is fantastic. Add to that a little smoke and tar and you get a rather simple but almost perfect sherried profile. With water: fab again! Gets wider, sweeter, fruitier, with many prunes, dates, raisins, figs, liquorice and then obvious notes of fresh blackcurrants. Impressive
restaurant Palate
oh sweet Vishnu, this is spectacular! We’re much more on PX now, it’s even some kind of ultra-fortified PX from an excellent maker’s. So very raisiny, obviously, with strong liquorice in the background. All that is truly fabulous, in fact. With water: the most perfect honey. Supremely PX-y, maybe not unlike some current middle-aged Glendronachs (more, much more about those later)
timer Finish
more of all that for a very long time. Maybe it becomes a notch too grapey in the aftertaste but I’m probably splitting hairs
