Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들어 향을 열면 마른 잎사귀와 먼지 앉은 견과, 오래된 책장의 냄새가 은은하게 인사한다. 40도의 낮은 도수 탓인지 셰리 캐스크의 무게는 얌전하고, 태운 설탕과 토스트 향이 뒤늦게 스친다. 한 모금 머금으면 계피와 넛맥, 호두의 마른 향신료가 혀를 감싸지만 과실의 힘이 부족해 다소 비어 있다. 스페이사이드 매캘런 12년의 점잖은 결을 보여주며, 삼킨 뒤에는 달게 우린 홍차 같은 드라이한 끝맛이 짧게 스러진다.
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
