Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 금빛에 옅은 호박이 섞여 잔 속에서 은은하게 빛난다. 셰리 우드에서 온 향은 볶은 견과와 어두운 꿀을 앞세우고 장미와 재스민의 화사함 그리고 말린 무화과와 대추야자가 겹겹이 쌓인다. 입에서는 홍차와 후추의 결이 먼저 닿고 마멀레이드와 말린 과실이 뒤를 따르지만 40도라는 도수 탓에 몸은 다소 가늘게 느껴진다. 여운은 짧은 편이며 호두 케이크의 고소함을 남기고 물러난다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark gold/light amber
air Nose
clearly something old-school Macallan, with a rather perfect sherry indeed, many roasted nuts, rather rose and jasmine this time, dark honeys, dried figs and dates, blueberry muffins, a fresh box of cigars, a little parsley and mint, some black earth (potting soil) and peanut butter… This really is an awesome nose, despite the strength. But low strengths rather feel on your palate…
restaurant Palate
not as 'peacocky' on the palate, but this was to be expected. Once again the wood feels a little bit, with more black tea and pepper, while the distillate would try to shoot dried fruits, marmalade and roasted nuts. Sadly, it remains a little weak and thin, which I find frustrating. Why 40% vol.!
timer Finish
shortish, nuttier. Walnut cake and marmalade in the even shorter aftertaste
