Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 마른 보리와 옅은 시트러스 향이 먼저 두드러진다. 1980년 증류된 이 24년 보틀링은 문을 닫은 노스 포트의 흔적을 담아, 시간이 깎아낸 미네랄과 왁스 같은 결이 명확하게 드러난다. 58도의 높은 도수답게 입에서는 마른 곡물과 후추, 옅은 꿀이 단단한 구조감으로 이어진다. 피니시는 건조하면서 길고, 오크의 탄닌이 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 사라진 증류소의 개성이 절제된 균형 속에서 발전한다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
this one’s very mineral, eminently austere, totally unsexy and… very malty. Also some paraffin, some grass, waxed papers, zests, rocks, soot, coal, newspapers of the day, more grass, concentrated lemon juice… There’s even a strange feeling of raw meat, I’d say beef carpaccio (with lemon and olive oil). Not an easy one for sure. With water: a meadow, sheep, mashed potatoes, dough, porridge… Organic, in a way
restaurant Palate
yeah well, it’s pure sweet and grassy malted barley, without any idiosyncrasies (what?) Some lemon as well. I’m sure water will work… With water: I was partially wrong. Water makes it softer and rounder, and even brings out grapefruits and a little honey, but there aren’t any other asperities, as marketers would say
timer Finish
medium length, on malt whisky (no kidding?!)
