Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1956년 증류 원액다운 3차 아로마가 노즈를 지배한다. 기름과 수액, 흙내가 먼저 드러나고 오래된 책과 가죽, 잉크와 담뱃진이 층층이 쌓인다. 그 뒤로 대추야자와 무화과, 체리 잼의 단맛이 서서히 올라온다. 팰럿은 오래된 약초 리큐어와 오렌지 리큐어를 섞은 듯하고 간장과 감초, 옅은 피트 연기가 발전한다. 46도에서 오는 기름진 질감이 인상적이며 피니시는 매우 길게 소금기와 감초를 남긴다.
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
