Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 40년 장기 숙성 그레인 위스키답게 코코넛과 바닐라, 잘 익은 바나나 향이 먼저 두드러진다. 리필 호그스헤드에서 오랜 시간을 보낸 만큼 오크는 절제되어 부드럽게 발전한다. 팰럿은 53.7도 캐스크 스트렝스치고 의외로 매끄럽고, 토피와 가벼운 향신료가 균형을 이룬다. 피니시는 길고 따뜻하며, 폐쇄된 카스브리지 특유의 곡물 단맛이 또렷이 깃들어 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
the higher strength makes it more spirity and varnishy, while it remains rather more coconut-forward for a while, before some pleasant buttery/grassy touches emerge. With water: grassy green peelings, kiwis, rhubarb… Not of those dull vanilla bombs at all
restaurant Palate
another one that’s very good, it seems, and very fruity to boot. A notch more bourbony than the Cad, but that’s perhaps the higher strength again. Jaffa cakes. With water: it’s quite malty! A few oak shavings, perhaps, but also an Old-Tomatiny side that’s very pleasant
timer Finish
medium, with more tropical fruits. We’re close to the Cadenhead this time. Nice grassy oiliness in the aftertaste (cough syrup)
