Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
향의 도입부는 더블린 보 스트리트의 옛 제임슨 증류소다운 부드러운 곡물과 꿀, 마른 사과 향이 또렷하게 잡힌다. 12년을 보낸 오래된 아이리시 위스키답게 향은 둥글고 단정하다. 입에서는 토피와 바닐라, 옅은 향신료가 발전하며 43도의 가벼운 질감으로 흐른다. 중반부에는 곡물의 고소함이 구조를 받친다. 피니시는 꿀과 보리가 잔잔하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
rather less impressive than the 1956, but that should come from the higher strength. Notes of verbena and chocolate, kumquats and peat smoke. Actually, maybe we should have tried this one before the 1956, but I’m sure water will help mucho mucho. With water: amazing how it changed. Much peatier, globally phenolic, grassy, tarry, meaty (game), even resinous… Certainly different from all ‘low strength’ versions of the Bicentenary, and certainly peatier and ‘wilder’, even if the markers do show up after a moment (balsamico, honeydew, camphor, thyme…) Even after 30 years in glass, it did need water
restaurant Palate
how punchy! We’re used – so to speak – to try these old Bowmores at much lower strengths (around 43%) or at 50% (the Blacks) but this is quite different. Let’s say this is much more on orange liqueur, Cointreau, even Parfait Amour (violet liqueur), with even something a tad cardboardy. But water should help again. With water: yes sir, it does. Here come the kumquats and tangerines, followed by cough syrup, eucalyptus drops, mint, fir honeydew and plum spirit
timer Finish
long, in the same vein, with just that faint cardoardiness coming back at this stage
