Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔에 잠긴 깊은 호박빛이 더프타운 40년 숙성의 무게를 그대로 드러낸다. 노즈에는 잘 익은 자두와 마른 무화과, 옅은 가죽 향이 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 입에서는 토피와 호두 껍질, 빻은 후추가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 45.3도의 부드러운 알코올이 단정한 균형을 잡는다. 1970년에 병입된 디럭스 하이랜드 몰트 시리즈답게 스페이사이드 노장다운 깊이가 마지막 여운까지 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
it’s the fruitiness that strikes first, with a profile that’s not without remind us of the older Bablairs. Some bananas, butter pears, papayas… There’s also quite some almond oil and a faint sourness (cider apples) as well as a little mint. Some custard as well, butterscotch, hints of quinces… It does not show much age I must say despite a very discreet touch of iron. A lot of refill wood, probably, and little sherry. After a few minutes: more stewed fruits
restaurant Palate
old style! Sweet, fruity and grassy at the same time, starting on bags of fruit peelings, apples, bananas… Then blood oranges and quite some bitter herbs (cinchona?) from the oak I guess. Rocket salad and green tea. The power is perfect. Too bad it becomes a tad drying after a few seconds, rather too much on over infused tea
timer Finish
medium long, with the oak coming even more to the front. Wheelbarrows of cinnamon and green tea. Also something pleasantly lemony
