Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
셰리 오크에서 10년을 보낸 시간이 이 맥캘란 캐스크 스트렝스의 짙은 성격을 결정한다. 스페이사이드 몰트가 셰리 우드와 만나 볶은 견과와 프루트케이크, 모카와 밀랍의 향을 마른 결로 쌓는다. 58.4도의 강한 입안은 매콤한 마른 과일과 아르마냑에 절인 자두, 대추야자와 무화과의 맛이 진하게 밀려든다. 셰리 오크다운 건조하고 단단한 깊이가 흔들림 없고, 앰버빛 아래로 마른 과일과 뒤늦게 터지는 꿀의 여운이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber with copper tones
air Nose
no, this is quite different, far more on roasted nuts and fruitcake, mocha, roasted sesame oil, even beeswax and dried beef. Then it shifts gradually towards furniture polish. Overall, it’s distinctly drier. With water: this official version gains a slight edge, thanks to a little more beeswax and some soft oils (sunflower)
restaurant Palate
the gap narrows on the palate, with the differences becoming more subtle. We’re on spicy dried fruits and Armagnac-soaked prunes once more. One is reminded of Austrian ‘Rumba Pfaumle’, which, long story short, translates, for the record, as ‘chocolate-dipped dried plums with domestic rum’. And in Austria, domestic rum is quite something, but I digress… With water: this time we’re nearly identical, this one just being a tad more polished, more harmonious. Dates and figs, with a signature note of copper coin
timer Finish
lovely length, loads of dried fruits, and a burst of honey arriving late
