Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1977년에 증류된 맥캘란이 리필 셰리 호그스헤드에서 40년을 보낸 끝에 짙은 적갈색을 잔에 또렷이 깃들게 한다. 코끝에는 농축된 건포도와 다크 초콜릿, 오랜 시간이 빚어낸 옅은 가죽 향이 먼저 올라온다. 한 모금에는 셰리의 깊은 단맛과 호두 껍질, 오래된 우드 노트가 묵직하게 입을 채운다. 48.5도라는 침착한 도수가 파인 앤 레어 시리즈의 우아한 균형을 길게 비친다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it does focus on wood indeed, but I have the feeling that it’s still under control. Pleasant maltiness, complemented with, indeed, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, baking spices, vanilla, cappuccino, burnt raisins, toasted oak, and roasted nuts. A little chocolate as well (brownies)
restaurant Palate
it’s decent, but it’s too much on the oaky side for me. And we’re not talking subtle old oak from long ageing here. More cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, white pepper… This is really spicy! Then walnuts and more toasted oak, as well as bitter cocoa and Jaffa cake
timer Finish
medium, chocolaty, toasted, cinnamony. Nutmeg singing loud in the aftertaste
