Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 폐쇄된 로크사이드의 1967년 빈티지가 들려주는 묵은 밀랍과 말린 열대 과일, 오래된 오크가 먼저 드러난다. 44년의 긴 숙성을 거친 몰트답게 농익은 과일과 시간의 깊이가 노즈를 지배한다. 팰럿에서는 41.5도의 차분한 도수 위로 꿀과 망고, 가벼운 허브가 부드럽게 입을 채운다. 피니시는 중간 길이로 마른 오크와 시트러스의 산미가 또렷하게 남는다. 사라진 증류소의 장기 숙성이 빚은 섬세한 구조감이 단단하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
Jesus Mary and Joseph, what a great Lochsidian nose! Imagine a little copper, or say old coins, plus a large basket full of ripe mangos, bananas, passion fruits and pink grapefruits. Then, after fifteen seconds, you get more menthol, peppermint, and the faintest eucalyptussy smell. Perhaps a handful of fresh almonds and hazelnuts as well. The freshness is impressive, you would have thought this baby would have been ridden with oaky scents. Not at all! Perhaps also rose petals and a touch of fresh butter. This, is a malt of distinction
restaurant Palate
hehehe, it roars! Well, not quite, but I had feared that at barely 40% vol. it would have become flattish and cardboardy. Not at all, and even if it’s not the brightest hyperfruity Lochside ever, and even if it tends to lose a bit of steam after one minute, all the fruits are still there. Maracuja, mangos, all that. A little chamomile as well, lime tree tea, green tea, orange blossom. In fact, it ends its life on you your palate almost all on notes of freshly squeezed oranges
timer Finish
okay, it’s rather short – no, very short - but it remained fresh. As they say, it leaves your palate ready for another glass
