Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
아메리칸과 유러피언 오크를 셰리로 시즈닝한 더블 캐스크가 이 매캘런 12년의 성격을 이끈다. 12년 숙성이 빚어낸 향은 초콜릿과 브라우니, 말린 포치니버섯의 흙내를 풀어내지만 오래 붙들려 있지는 않는다. 40도의 입에서는 정향과 마멀레이드, 초콜릿 케이크와 피칸 파이가 이어지고 오렌지의 단맛이 끝까지 버틴다. 청동빛 도는 골드 컬러 뒤로 오렌지 케이크의 여운이 짧지만 산뜻하게 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
bronze gold
air Nose
sure it’s not big, but it is rather nice, despite a few disturbing whiffs of pencil shavings. Large-brand chocolate, brownies, garden peat (and other earthy things), dried porcinis… Sadly, it really fades away after just two minutes, to the point where I’m thinking I should have used an amplifying glass instead of my faithful tulip glass. Goodbye!
restaurant Palate
ah, more power now, at least for a while. More oomph and flavours than in the Double Cask, cloves, marmalade, chocolate cake, pecan pie… But then, again, it tends to become thin. What’s nicer is that oranges remain there
timer Finish
short and thin, but not as evanescent as the humble Double Cask. Orange cake covered with chocolate
