Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
로우랜드 모파스 인근의 평지에서 일찍 사라진 가른히스 그레인 증류소가 41년의 침묵을 깨고 나타난다. 1974년 빈티지의 이 보틀링은 버번 배럴이 빚어낸 50.8도의 도수와 옅은 황금빛을 보여준다. 향은 코코넛 슬라이스와 바닐라 시럽, 따뜻한 옥수수 빵이 명확하게 드러난다. 입에서는 두꺼운 질감의 토피와 메이플, 옅은 향신료가 부드럽게 입을 채운다. 여운에는 로우랜드 그레인의 깔끔한 곡물 풍미가 깊게 머문다.

well as I was remembering Garnheath (yeah yeah), that is to say very light, discreet, whispering… In truth it’s the barrel that speaks here, and what it tells us is pleasant. Butterscotch, praline, white chocolate, vanilla, a wee touch of wood dust, one or two jelly babies (pineapple-flavoured)… Whispering indeed. With water: the barrels speaks out, the spirit answers… not much. But it was a nice barrel

ho ho ho! We’re in rum territories now, and I cannot not think of lightish Enmore from Guyana. Pineapple butter cream, coconut liqueur, sugar cane, drops of orange juice… In truth it’s very tropical. Very approachable, and certainly not tired. With water: becomes truly excellent, if still easy. Fruity, vanilla-ed, sweetly oaky old juice. Doesn’t taste old at all, by the way. Probably filled at 70% vol., if not more

easy, sweet, not old. This could be 10yo
