Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 기울이면 1966년산 맥캘란이 만든 진한 마호가니빛이 잔 벽을 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 코를 가져가면 셰리 캐스크의 건자두와 가죽, 오래된 책장의 향이 동시에 떠오른다. 한 모금을 머금으면 17년이 만든 무게가 혀를 묵직하게 누른다. 다크 초콜릿과 구운 호두, 옅은 오렌지 껍질이 순서대로 따라온다. 삼킨 뒤에는 셰리 단맛과 우드 탄닌이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
beautiful sherry. Lots of dried tropical fruits (pineapple, guava). Some interesting animal notes like in an old Bourgogne (civet – I like that) with quite some burnt sugar. A great one, for sure
restaurant Palate
beautiful as well, on herbs and Sauternes wine. Lots of dried fruits, fresh mango… Gets very spicy, with some white pepper and a bit of clove. Wow, again a great old Dailuaine by Cadenhead! 90 points . MUSIC – Recommended listening: avant-garde trumpet star Olu Dara sings and plays a most wonderful and very bluesy Harlem Country Girl.mp3 , from 'In The World: From Natchez to New York'. He used to play with Don Pullen (wow!), David Murray or Cassandra Wilson, and is also the father of hip-hop artist Nas. I love him (the father, not the son) - please buy his fantastic music! PREVENTING HANGOVER – Every whisky aficionado has his own methods, from B vitamins to Uncle Rummie's and from not mixing grape and grain to swallowing litres of water. Yet, we have another method now that should be much more efficient. Indeed, after every sip of whisky, you just have to do this . When it starts to sound too horrible (meaning when your friends have left the room since a long time), you're done: just stop drinking. If your friends left the room right after - or during - your very first attempt, try this . In case you fail again, the method won't work for you, I'm afraid (vocal coaching by Chris Beatty ) July 3, 2005 MUSIC – Recommended listening: a beautiful one... Robert Cray does Twenty.mp3 , blending blues, soul, a wonderful guitar and some moving lyrics. Please buy Robert Cray's brand new album!
