Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오래된 황금빛이 잔 안에 깊게 머문다. 1965년 글래스고 부지의 킨클레이스에서 빚어진 뒤 24년을 보낸 카덴헤드 Authentic Collection의 51.4도가 단단한 도수로 펼쳐진다. 향에서는 마른 풀과 시리얼, 약한 밀랍 톤이 깊게 머문다. 입에서는 베이크된 사과와 캐러멜라이즈드 비스킷의 부드러운 단맛이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 옅은 후추가 균형을 잡는다. 여운은 곡물의 마른 잔향으로 길게 따라간다. 잃어버린 로랜드 몰트의 마지막 흔적이다. 긴 숙성이 빚어낸 부드러운 완성도가 마지막 모금까지 또렷하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
not much of a quiet Lowlander (it was a Lowlander), rather a style that reminds me of several other old-school dryish malts, such as Millburn, or Glenesk. So not the tiniest piece of fruit, rather bags of grass and leaves, then baker’s dough, and yeast, graphite oils, soot, plaster, concrete, and then more menthol. Enough to bring texture to a good blend… forty years ago. With water: ooh the old days! Paraffin aplenty, fabric, Barbour grease, rabbit fur (yep)…
restaurant Palate
a feeling of quaffing cold-distilled ale at first (remember Brewdog’s?) then some kind of pine-y bread and the feeling of crunching some grapefruit-flavoured wax. Much better than it sounds, despite the touches of soap that are there too. With water: please don’t add any water, should you stumble upon a bottle. It just wouldn’t swim on the palate, and would just sink and get very cardboardy. Unless you added just a tiny drop of H2O to 5cl of whisky
timer Finish
medium, dry, rather on ale
