Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 흔들면 1977년에 증류된 글렌유기가 32년을 보낸 짙은 호박빛을 드러낸다. 코끝에 가져가면 호그스헤드에서 자란 과일 향 위로 올로로소 셰리 피니시가 더한 건포도와 호두가 겹겹이 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 58.6도의 기운이 묵직하게 입을 채우며 흑설탕과 말린 자두, 구운 견과가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 천천히 삼키면 사라진 증류소다운 묵은 오크와 셰리의 단맛이 혀에 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full amber
air Nose
we’re so much in line with the 1978, it’s frightening. The 15+ extra-years did not change much, this is just a little leafier and less chocolaty. The almondy, putty-like side is wonderful too. With water: hell, tobacco! Leaves! Thuja wood! Pu-erh tea! Fabulous nose if you’re into this style…
restaurant Palate
oooooh… the SMWS is crushed when we’re talking unreduced spirit. Indeed, this baby’s stronger but it’s more complex, richer, more silky in a way… Stunning oranges and kumquats, bergamots, oily and mentholated things (I don’t know, like sauces, cordials, syrups…) It’s exactly fabulous whisky and I’m not even sure it needs water. Yup I know it was bottled at almost 60% vol. Yet, with water: oh no, it does not swim! The oak comes out and kills the rest, with a ‘cocoa powder effect’ that’s not too nice. Careful with water
timer Finish
very long, dry, mentholated. After Eights without the lethal amount of sugar
