Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오래 잠든 시간을 머금은 옅은 황금빛이 잔 안에서 은은하게 빛난다. 이미 문을 닫은 밴프 증류소의 1975년 원액은 40년이라는 세월에도 리필 호그스헤드 속에서 섬세함을 잃지 않았다. 코끝에는 말린 사과와 밀랍, 오래된 책장의 마른 향이 겹친다. 입에 닿으면 40.6도의 부드러운 도수가 꿀과 보리, 은은한 시트러스를 천천히 풀어놓고, 끝에는 마른 풀과 옅은 오크의 여운이 아련하게 흩어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour

air Nose
no! I mean, how could anyone resist a blend of quince and apricot juices? And with whiffs of hot roasted chestnuts, plus a glass of Trockenbeerenaulsese from good old Schloss Vollrads? One day I’ll tell you a story about this guy bringing home half a bottle of such nectar from Bad-Godesberg and leaving it in the kitchen, and finding the pineapple chicken cooked by his wife absolutely stunning just two days later. Indeed, it is a sad story, but the nose of this Banff is glorious
restaurant Palate
good, the oak’s taken over, so you need to intellectualise it a wee bit and to tidy things up. In that case, provided you manage to focus on all this, you’ll still find mango juice, papayas, avocado juice, crushed bananas and guavas. In a way, it’s a bit like when you’re watching a very old yet fantastic black-and-white movie, some context is in order
