Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
연한 황금빛이 잔 가장자리에서 산뜻하게 비친다. 1980년 글레누기가 오크 캐스크에서 12년을 머문 시간이 향에 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 잘 익은 사과와 마른 풀, 옅은 꿀, 시트러스 껍질이 차례로 깨어난다. 입에서는 59.7도의 두꺼운 알코올이 보리의 단맛과 토스트한 시리얼, 가벼운 미네랄리티를 풀어 놓는다. 1983년에 문을 닫은 글레누기의 청량한 캐릭터가 마지막까지 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
coffee
air Nose
wah! Toffee and coffee, coffee and toffee. And plum jam, and chocolate. Not much else so far but the combo is perfect. Oh, and a lot of very, very old balsamic vinegar. And flints. With water: yah! Exceptional notes of precious leather, pipe tobacco, molasses, ‘brand new snickers’ (rubber), jamon iberico (right, any high-end cured ham)… Fantastic sherry. Some may think it’s a tad too ‘sulphury’, I think it isn’t
restaurant Palate
wow! Rich, punchy, meaty, chocolaty, ‘plummy’, flinty, tarry, smoky… Heavily concentrated, the sherry is perfect. Also big notes of Seville oranges and a heaviness that hints at some dark rums, but without any cloying notes. Elegantly Demerara-ish, I’d say (will you cut the crap one day, S.?) With water: fabulously resinous, putty-ish, cinchona-ish fruitiness. A long forgotten bottle of herbs liqueur. Old Armagnac. Praline
timer Finish
extremely long and rich but clean, getting appropriately drier in the aftertaste (no ‘heavy tongue effect’)
