Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
호그스헤드에서 29년을 보낸 1981년산 글렌 알빈은 인버네스에서 사라진 증류소의 원액을 오랜 숙성으로 깊이 다듬었다. 향은 잘 익은 배와 꿀, 마른 헤더의 향취가 느긋하게 올라온다. 57.5도의 높은 도수는 입안을 둥글게 메우며 바닐라와 시트러스, 가벼운 향신료를 풀어낸다. 긴 숙성이 만든 맑은 황금빛 아래 여운에는 과실과 오크의 단 기운이 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
rather hot and grainy but the grain is sweet and nicely creamy. Things like buttery popcorn and coconut coming through. I also find gorse, some dried yellow flowers, wet tea leaves and some hints of sherry with this rather elegant gingery warmth. Can’t seem to decide whether it wants to be powerful or restrained. In time the sherry and sweeter tones really start to sing beautifully. With water: much grainier and more youthful with cereal sweetness, barley sugar and heather honey
restaurant Palate
nicely warming, peppery, spicy, gingery and again with this creamy coconut and buttery popcorn combo on display. Some cooking oils and things like ink and bouillon stock. With water: thick, creamy, gingery sherry, olive oil, brown bread and various vegetable stocks and broths. Even a hint of soy sauce
timer Finish
long, peppery, slightly drying, salty, leathery and umami
