Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오크 캐스크에서 18년을 보낸 1977년 댈러스 두는 문을 닫은 증류소가 남긴 시간을 카스크 강도로 증언한다. 잘 익은 사과와 꿀, 마른 풀의 향이 단정하게 올라온다. 59.2도의 힘찬 도수 위로 시트러스와 보리, 가벼운 향신료가 강하게 입을 채운다. 옅은 황금빛 사이로 마른 오크와 맥아의 단맛이 뜨겁고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
this is quite a magnificent nose, half-pastry-like and half-industrial, combining fresh concrete and engine grease with walnut cake and groundnut oil. But the very high strength still stands in the way a little, even after thirty years in bottle, so water will be welcome. With water: well it tightens up on fresh barley, damp earth, putty and paraffin
restaurant Palate
much more vivid on the palate, very lemony, chalky, reminiscent of a fat yet sharp sauvignon blanc from the east of the Loire. The expected notes of slightly salted grapefruit, and even mezcal, are here too. With water: perfect, very old-school in texture, almost a little sulphury à la Mortlach. Notes of fresh mushrooms and a light dustiness that calls to mind an antiques shop. This is certainly an antique malt!
timer Finish
long, oily, almost thick, you almost feel like you’ll need a wee spoon to scoop out the rest of your glass. The discreet salty touch in the dying moments signs off the whole with flair
