Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 마른 견과와 오래된 책장을 떠올리는 향이 먼저 두드러지고, 잎사귀 같은 풋내와 태운 설탕이 이어진다. 40도의 낮은 도수 탓에 팰럿은 다소 느슨하게 풀려, 계피와 육두구, 호두의 마른 스파이스가 중심을 잡지만 받쳐줄 과일감이 부족해 살짝 비어 있는 인상이다. 피니시는 짧고 건조하게 떨어진다. 셰리 오크에서 12년을 보낸 맥캘란으로, 화려함보다 절제된 구조감이 앞선다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
to be honest, I liked the freshness of the ‘Gold’ a little better. This one’s nice as well, but it’s a little more, yeah, vague, with wee leafy smells, some kinds of dusty nuts, and this feeling of old books that can be brilliant… Or not. Some burnt sugar too, toasts…
restaurant Palate
once again, it’s the low strength that makes it a little too flabby and frustrating. There’s some cinnamon and nutmeg, as well as walnuts, but it feels bizarrely empty, there isn’t enough fruity kick to support those dry spicy notes
timer Finish
very short and quite dry. As if we’ve just had black tea that we had sweetened with aspartame
