Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 응축된 짙은 마호가니빛이 잔 깊이 그윽하게 잠겨 있다. 셰리 캐스크에서 20년을 보낸 1974년 매캘란은 잘 익은 무화과와 오렌지 껍질, 오래된 가죽과 목재의 향을 우아하게 풀어놓는다. 한 모금 머금으면 말린 대추와 호두, 다크 토피의 깊은 단맛이 입안을 감싸고 54도가 둥글게 받친다. 여운에는 가죽과 묵은 오크, 쌉쌀한 코코아가 길게 이어지며 옛 매캘란의 품격을 새긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
even after thirty years in glass, it'll need to breathe a little bit. And then, it'll become just sublime, meatier than all of them, with soups, gravies, marrow, chicken masala, Spanish ham, a 50-box of Cuban puros, all kinds of rains and just 'whatnot'. With water: gets fractal, with metallic touches, minerals, herbs, tars, flowers, fruits, and resinous molecules, good terpenes, rubbers, tars… All that
restaurant Palate
wow. Macallan at its peak, ticking all boxes, from meats to dried fruits. There's even this touch of menthol in the background that's keeping it kind of refreshing. We said, 'kind of'. With water: nah, it would kind of disintegrate once you've added water, getting a wee tad too resinous and drying. We say we shan't care
timer Finish
long, on rubber, tar, raisins, marmalade, dried figs…
