Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
호박빛이 잔 안에서 붉은 기운 없이 단정하게 번진다. 향은 연필을 깎을 때의 나뭇결과 메이플 시럽의 단맛으로 열리고 그 뒤로 무화과와 대추야자 모과 건포도가 옛 매캘란의 얼굴을 드러낸다. 입에서는 향보다 단순해지지만 잼처럼 진한 과실과 초콜릿의 단맛이 또렷하고 볶은 견과의 쌉쌀함이 균형을 잡아준다. 1971년에 병입된 43.4도의 여운은 초콜릿과 건포도로 이어지다 옅은 연기로 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber. Absolutely not ruby but that’s good news. Well, they could always do a Beaujolais finish on a very young spirit if they need genuine ruby…
air Nose
we’re somewhere between both worlds. Modern woodiness (pencil shavings, maple syrup, vanilla) and old-style Macallan, with figs, dates, quinces, raisins and touches of both strawberry jam and orange marmalade. It is an aromatic nose, more ‘Macallan’ than many other recent offerings (certainly the Fine Oaks) and it reminds me a bit of the old ‘all blue’ 30yo. One may feel a little ‘wood technology’ but I won’t deny it’s extremely well made. So far
restaurant Palate
the oak doesn’t feel too much but it’s simpler than on the nose, more fruity and jammy, with good chocolate and raisins. It’s a sweet one, it’s only in the background that roasted nuts add a welcome bitterness. Seville oranges
timer Finish
good length, chocolaty and raisiny. Smoky aftertaste, with a feeling of fresh butter (oak in this context?)
