Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
거의 검게 보이는 마호가니빛이 잔 바닥까지 가라앉는다. 1970년에 증류해 1989년 캐든헤즈가 담은 이 열아홉 해짜리 맥캘란은 뱅쇼와 정향, 주니퍼 베리의 향으로 강렬하게 열리고 곧 다크 초콜릿과 간장, 구운 소고기 같은 결이 이어진다. 46도임에도 입안은 두껍고 기름져 럼에 절인 건포도와 무화과의 맛이 밀려온다. 여운은 길게 코팅되듯 남고 끝에 옅은 소금기와 블랙베리 젤리가 또렷하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark mahogany
air Nose
yes, this is extremely different from any other Macallan. Starts on heady notes of mulled wine, cloves, big juniper berries, spearmint and coffee toffee and gets then more classically sherried, with the dark chocolate upfront and then notes of soy sauce, balsamico and barbecued beef. Also cigar box, thuja wood and very ripe blackberries. What’s quite incredible is that the whole is still quite fresh and lively, and certainly not sluggish. I like it
restaurant Palate
thick, oily, rich, not weak at all despite the 40%, and more of a classic now. Heavy notes of rum-soaked raisins, figs, old rancio (huge!) and orange and herbs liqueur (like that famous Dantziger Goldwasser). Gets then spicier, mainly on cloves and pepper, with very funny hints of mescal as well. Excellent, really
timer Finish
long, coating, rich but clean and pure, with a faint saltiness as the signature and an aftertaste on blackberry jelly. Excellent sherried Macallan, certainly not on the same planet as its bros from 1980 and later
