Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 폐쇄 증류소 글레누기의 27년 버번 캐스크가 그려낸 밀랍과 마른 풀, 가벼운 트로피컬 과일 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 시간이 지나면 코코넛과 바닐라가 발전한다. 팰럿에서는 54.2도의 강도가 짙은 질감으로 흐르며 망고, 파인애플, 꿀을 머금은 비스킷이 명확하게 드러난다. 피니시는 길게 이어지며 가볍게 짭조름한 미네랄로 마무리된다. 1973 빈티지의 구조감이 단단하게 자리잡은 보틀링이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour

air Nose
bizarrely, considering this is Glenugie, this baby’s more austere than the Glenury, and certainly much smokier, as if it was peated whisky (around 10ppm to give you an idea, say just below Ardmore). On the other hand, one can feel that this is very complex, with some tiny mushrooms, a little saltpetre, various apples, plums, a little melon, certainly quite some high-end tea, wulong… But let’s try to wake it up. With water: superb! There, all these fruits, guava galore, more melon, apricot juice… All this is very Glenugie
restaurant Palate
starts a little bizarre this time, I do get touches of lavender and violet sweets as well as a little milk and canned cranberry juice (not always perfect if you ask me), but after that all goes right, with this very peculiar fruitiness that’s very, well, Glenugie. Oranges and papayas, grapefruits, kiwis, then jellybeans and icing sugar as well as touches of burnt herbs. Thyme? Nah, it’s a little unusual indeed… With water: half wonderful, half bizarre. The greatest fruits on the one side, and a slightly soapy/lavendery thing on the other side
timer Finish
long, a notch bitter and too grassy. And this lavender’s always there
