Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
사라진 글렌에스크 1981이 셰리 캐스크에서 26년을 머금어 짙은 호박빛이 잔에 머문다. 향에서는 잘 익은 자두와 가벼운 가죽, 마른 무화과, 옅은 흙내음이 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 56.9도의 입안은 묵직하게 흘러 흑설탕과 호두, 부드러운 정향의 매콤함이 차례로 풀린다. 던컨 테일러 레어 올드가 봉인한 사라진 글렌에스크의 단단한 결이 깊고 우아한 여운으로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
very powerful, starting on huge notes of wine and distillation. Kirsch, maraschino, a little rubber and quite some meet sauce (or chicken bouillon for that matter.) Gets then flintier, with also quite some gunpowder and burnt matches as well as notes of plain oak and burnt sugar (right, caramel). With water: a big grassiness arises, with a lot of plain cut grass and infused green tea, and then more linseed oil and paraffin, even motor oil
restaurant Palate
very thick and very creamy, starting all on orange liqueur and herbs (coriander) and getting then more coffeeish. Another coffee-schnapps? With water: it got half sherried, half organic. Bitter oranges, strong coffee (a bit acidic) and peppercorn. Unusual
timer Finish
long, with many more spices now, including various peppers
