Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
리필 셰리 벗에서 22년을 보낸 아델피 셀렉션으로, 노즈는 옛 맥캘란 특유의 기름진 밀도로 열린다. 수액과 흙, 오래된 책과 가죽, 잉크가 층을 이루고 그 뒤에서 무화과와 건포도, 마멀레이드가 늦게 올라온다. 시간이 지나면 멘톨과 이끼, 버섯의 서늘한 인상이 더해진다. 팰럿은 56도의 기름진 촉감이 입천장을 천천히 덮고 허브와 잼, 간장, 감초가 겹친다. 피니시는 매우 길고 단맛이 물러난 자리에 짭짤한 광물성이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this is real old Macallan, with a seemingly much fatter profile, full of oils, saps and earths, then notes of old books and leathers, inks, tobacco, pitch… It’s only after that very tertiary barrage that fruitier and jammier notes take off, such as dates, figs and raisins, marmalade, cherry jam and all that. After ten minutes if rather becomes mentholy, in a beautiful way. Humus, moss, mushrooms…
restaurant Palate
yess. Old chartreuse plus old Grand-Marnier, fifty-fifty. Oily mouth feel (worm tubs and all that), herbs, jams, soy sauce, liqueurs, peat smokiness, liquorice, mineral things, mint drops, cigarette tobacco, pipe tobacco, a touch of salt… This bottle was brilliant. And it tastes like 46% vol
timer Finish
very long, with less sweetness – always good in any finish – and a lasting feeling of salty mineral things, plus liquorice
