Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
크레겔라키 인근 스페이강 변의 비옥한 토양이 1970년 매캘런의 단단한 골격을 만든다. 18년을 보낸 이 카덴헤드 덤피 보틀링은 54.9도의 도수와 짙은 호박빛을 함께 드러낸다. 향은 말린 자두와 오렌지 마멀레이드, 가죽이 또렷이 드러난다. 입에서는 묵직하게 입을 채우는 자두잼과 다크 초콜릿, 호두 오일이 단단한 균형을 이룬다. 여운에는 스페이강 변의 따스한 햇볕이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
starts on beef stock and dark chocolate, more oloroso than the olorosoest of all olorosos and gets then extremely complex, with no obvious aromas standing out anymore. It’s rather an assemblage of myriads of tiny notes, such as raisins, beef jerky, milk chocolate, walnuts, bread crust, burnt caramel, rum, strawberry jam, ash smoke, ham, wine sauce, toffee, kirsch, coffee, bacon, moss, mushrooms… Agreed, what a litany! Oh, and maybe cooking turnips
restaurant Palate
well, the first feeling we get is ‘old Macallan!’ It’s big, robust whisky and really, it’s very Macallan (I know this is of little use, sorry.) Smyrna raisins, toffee, liquorice, smoked ham, prunes, coffee… Oh well, you see what I mean. Very Macallan indeed and this is adorable, even if it does get just a tad dryish after a moment
timer Finish
long, a tad rawer now, salty and balsamic but also more candied and fruity at the retro-olfaction (apricot liqueur)
