Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 황금빛이 잔에 또렷이 비친다. 2002년 폐쇄된 덤바튼 그레인 증류소가 1987년에 증류되어 버번 호그스헤드에서 27년을 머문 흔적은 사라진 로우랜드 그레인의 캐릭터를 그대로 보존한다. 향에서는 짙은 바닐라와 옥수수 시럽, 옅은 코코넛이 차례로 풀려나고 입에서는 53.9도의 알코올이 부드러운 단맛과 향나무로 흐른다. 여운에는 폐쇄된 그레인 증류소의 정갈한 결이 오래 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
now I remember why I chose the old Auchentoshans. Styles are similar, with this combination of vanilla-ed sawdust and coconut oil. What’s funny is that I’m also finding ‘ideas of Ladyburn’ (what?), with this very bright ‘yellow’ fruitiness that would involve peaches and mirabelles. Chamomile. With water: pure vanilla fudge mixed with apple compote. And one croissant au beurre
restaurant Palate
acacia honey, mint-flavoured tea, argan oil (we’re definitely in southern Morocco), pear paste – or crystallised pears -, mirabelles, marzipan, hay wine (they make that in the Vosges mountains, sounds crazy but it ain’t too bad)… I find this neat. What may also save it is the fact that the oak wasn’t too active. Hurray for lazy casks! With water: works. Cereals, sweet lager, dry cider, a few drops of limoncello. In other words, back to the barley
timer Finish
some grassy oak coming through, but it remains brighter than the old Auchs. That would be Auchentoshans
