Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들어 향을 열면 진한 금빛이 천천히 내려앉는다. 코를 가져가면 꿀에 절인 담뱃잎과 살짝 구운 호두 헤이즐넛 피칸이 차례로 올라온다. 40도의 한 모금은 가볍게 들어와 비스킷과 말린 과일 크리스마스 케이크를 그린다. 다만 중간에서 힘이 한 번 꺾이고 설탕에 절인 오렌지가 뒤를 채운다. 삼킨 뒤에는 화이트 초콜릿과 흙내가 짧게 스친다. 19년을 채운 원액의 결이 낮은 도수에도 또렷이 깃들어 있다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
it is rather lovely, soft, honeyed, with those tobacco-and-honey notes typical of Macallan in those days, a whiff of old Yquem (yes!), and a charming mix of nuts—walnuts, hazelnuts, pecans, pumpkin seeds, macadamias—all lightly toasted. Hints of earth, mushrooms and more tobacco, so yes, definitely Macallan, though at 40% vol. the weaknesses will show on the palate
restaurant Palate
well, even at 40% vol., it’s a very good Macallan and remains a very good whisky. There’s that honeyed tobacco again, biscuits, dried fruits, even Christmas cake and candied orange. It just tends to frustrate the palate slightly in mid-mouth, likely due to the low wattage. It’s a bit like acoustic Led Zeppelin, if you will
timer Finish
a little short, but clean, rather floral and slightly earthy. Lacks a bit of punch though. Surprising notes of white chocolate in the aftertaste
