Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 기울여 천천히 돌리면 15년을 보낸 보틀링치고 산뜻한 옅은 금빛이 유리벽을 따라 흘러내린다. 코끝으로 가져가면 퍼스트필 버번이 남긴 바닐라와 레몬, 갓 벤 풀의 향이 차례로 피어오른다. 한 모금을 머금어 혀 위에서 굴리면 55.7도의 또렷함 속에 꿀과 보리, 사과의 단맛이 맑게 퍼진다. 입천장을 천천히 적시면 퍼스트필 버번이 더한 크림 같은 바닐라와 흰 후추가 한 겹 더 드러난다. 농장에서 위스키를 빚는 댑트밀답게 이 보틀링은 삼킨 뒤 시트러스와 곡물의 깨끗한 잔향을 길게 이어간다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
bright straw
air Nose
you do notice the extra few years, this one goes immediately to richer territories of shoe leather, polish, linseed oils and impressions of sauternes and custard. Given a little more time it begins to show a very precise honeyed note that feels like old mead mixed with flower honey. There's also a thready and rather delicate waxiness that runs throughout. Undeniably classy and pretty beautiful. With water: lovely, on clay, sunflower oil, face cream and sandalwood. Does what many of these Daftmill seem to do with water, become drier and more elegant
restaurant Palate
unsurprisingly there's a clear voice from the wood here, but it's rather more peppery and spicy than anticipated, crumbled oatcakes, freshly churned butter, watercress and impressions of vegetable stock, aniseed and herbal tea. Feels like Daftmill drifting into new territory at this kind of age. With water: wonderfully peppery, softly oily and becoming very complex now with tiny mechanical and medicinal inflections. The wood never quite dominates the distillate, rather they bend quite nicely together
timer Finish
long, warming, glowing with soft waxes, dried herbs, various teas, vapour rubs, and dried flowers
