Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 시리얼과 마른 살구가 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 침묵한 록사이드의 1981 빈티지 29년 숙성에서 리필 부르번 배럴의 절제된 영향이 명확하게 드러나며 51.2도 ABV의 균형이 단단하다. 팰럿에서는 꿀과 흰꽃, 가벼운 가죽이 발전하고 하이랜드 사일런트 디스틸러리 특유의 응축된 캐릭터가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 피니시는 마른 오크와 백후추가 길게 이어지며 구조감이 분명하다. 고든 앤 매크페일 캐스크 스트렝스의 분석적 정확도가 명확하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
interestingly, this one is both similar and different from the BBR, not only because of the higher strength. Once again, the citrusy notes don’t play in solo here, as there’re also some pleasant whiffs of wet gravels at first nosing and then more grassy notes and even a little mustard or horseradish. And once again citrus wins in the end. With water: yeah, pure, crystal-clean Lochsideness now. The citrusy fighter squadron
restaurant Palate
a creamier, thicker, more candied and spicier version of Lochside. It’s probably a little less fresh than others but it’s also fuller, kind of more satisfying. A big 1981 Lochside that hints at the 1960s in a certain way (1966, anyone?) More topical fruits, mangos, passion fruits, oranges as well… Oh well, I’m sure you see what I mean. Honey as well, ginger… With water: a citrusy sin, a true fruit bomb
timer Finish
long and just as citrusy. More grapefruits than oranges now
