Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 숙성 연수에 비해 놀랍도록 신선한 과실로 출발한다. 미라벨과 모과, 살구가 순서대로 드러나고 부드러운 바닐라가 그 아래를 받친다. 팰럿은 버번 호그스헤드에서 온 원액이 그대로 노출되어 파인애플과 바나나, 키위의 단맛이 발전한다. 물을 더하면 맥아와 빵 반죽 쪽으로 결이 옮겨가며 49.6도의 균형이 단단하다. 피니시는 길고 보리와 오렌지의 잔향이 또렷이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
aaaah! This one’s as fresh and fruity as a 5 years old, but it’s just stunning because of the added complexity that only age, whichever the cask and its state, can bring to any whisky. That, you cannot replicate with more of that dreadful ‘wood technology’ that’s so en vogue these days beyond Hadrian’s wall. Mirabelles, quinces, apricots, soft vanilla, and this lovely wine that they make in the Pyreneans, called Jurançon moelleux
restaurant Palate
Macallan totally au naturel, slightly rough, with pineapples, bananas, kiwis, and more mirabelles. Or say all those fruits macerated in good artisan kirsch. Let’s see what water does to it, just in the name of science (while the nose got rather maltier and almost bready)… Yeah, very malty, with a typical Macallan fatness, but I wouldn’t say it’s the best swimmer ever. It doesn’t need water anyway
timer Finish
long, fruity, barleyish. More oranges
