Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
긴 시간이 응축된 진한 호박빛이 잔 안에 깊게 머문다. 1965 빈티지의 맥캘런이 스페이사이드 특유의 셰리 풍미와 묵직한 곡물 단맛을 25년의 긴 시간 위에 우아하게 정제한다. 43도 ABV가 부드러운 균형으로 흐른다. 코에는 절인 무화과, 다크 초콜릿, 가죽이 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 입안에서는 토피, 카카오, 시나몬의 결이 차례로 발전한다. 짙은 호박빛 끝자락에 셰리의 단맛과 우드의 결이 길게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
same territories as the ‘Pride’, only rather rounder, more candied, and with more dried fruits, including bananas, pears, raisins… Cigars are obvious too in this ‘buy-this-or-buy-a-small-car’ whisky. Rhubarb tarte, with meringue on top of it, and much less sherry than you would think. A wee whiff of wood smoke
restaurant Palate
really similar to the 1937, which rather comes as a surprise. Once again we’re a little in cognac territories (did Michael Jackson ever write about cognac? I cannot remember…) with ripe fresh fruits everywhere, juicy raisins, overripe apples, oranges, and then more and more tropical fruits, rather around ripe bananas. It’s the freshness that’s impressive here, first and foremost, as well as the way it tends to turn more herbal and dry, in a magnificent way. Teas and tobaccos
timer Finish
medium, on some kind of spicy marmalade, with a stunning freshness
