Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 시간이 응축된 짙은 호박빛이 잔에 두텁게 가라앉는다. 1965년 폐쇄된 글렌 알빈이 셰리 캐스크에서 34년의 침잠을 거쳐 킹스버리의 켈틱 시리즈로 풀려난 이 보틀링은 잘 익은 무화과와 헤이즐넛, 옅은 가죽과 마른 정향의 따스한 향이 한꺼번에 솟구친다. 한 모금에 49.1도의 단단한 알코올이 흑설탕 토피와 캐러멜라이즈된 오렌지, 옅은 시나몬의 단맛을 두텁게 끌어온다. 인버네스 폐쇄 증류소의 깊은 잔향이 그윽하게 식어간다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale straw
air Nose
straw, wool, ink, fabrics, pollen and an almost grappa-esque fruitiness with background notes of wine must and limoncello - or am I just starting to ‘think’ Italian? No wonder this used to sell well in Italy. I also find rather a lot of ripe peaches in syrup and crushed almonds. A very slight cardboard note too, but that may be OBE
restaurant Palate
rather light, gently creamy and with these unusual lactic tones such as Greek yoghurt and milk bottle sweets. Some crumbled oatcakes, juniper and crushed nettles. Rather ginish in some ways, but that may well be the youthfulness of the spirit. Indeed, it feels very young but the spirit is light, playful and not without charisma
timer Finish
short, citrusy, some barley sugar sweetness and wee grassy touches
