Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
금빛이 잔 속에서 은근하게 빛난다. 1937년에 증류해 1972년에 병입한 이 위스키의 향은 오래된 책장과 옅은 연기로 열리고 진저브레드와 건포도 그리고 갓 켠 톱밥의 결이 차례로 드러난다. 입에서는 오크에서 온 달콤한 향신료가 먼저 닿아 생강과 육두구 뒤이어 계피와 정향이 번지며 40도의 몸은 의외로 건조하게 이어진다. 여운에서는 계피가 앞장서고 아니스와 오렌지 마멀레이드의 잔향이 옅게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold, so darker than the ‘Gold’ that’s more ‘pale gold’ (tried last year, WF 81)
air Nose
of course it’s not the same whisky as the old 12 but there are similarities such as the smokiness and the touches of old books. Other than that, there’s much more straight oak, some gingerbread, sultanas, a feeling of European oak (ginger) that may not come from European oak ;-) and then more tertiary notes such as a little camphor (very discreet). More and more praline and vanilla as well and lastly, whiffs of fresh sawdust and more and more porridge. We’re a little between two worlds, raisiny sherry and new spicy oak, with a raw barleyness that isn’t too far
restaurant Palate
a sweet spiciness from the oak strikes first, with more ginger and nutmeg plus more and more cinnamon and cloves after that. Some raisins and orange peel too but there’s no ‘maple syrup’ effect. It’s all rather dry
timer Finish
medium length, with just the same spices except that it’s the cinnamon that took the lead. Touches of aniseed in the aftertaste, orange marmalade
