Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 1969년 증류된 맥캘란의 원숙한 셰리 향과 건과일 향이 먼저 두드러진다. 33년이라는 긴 숙성을 거친 만큼 건포도와 오래된 오크, 가죽의 향이 또렷이 발전한다. 40.1도의 팰럿은 섬세한 검은 과일과 차분한 오크의 단맛이 어우러지며 균형이 단단하다. 오래 익은 스페이사이드 셰리다운 진중한 여운이 길게 이어지며 섬세하게 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
not shy at all, starting on lots of apple juice and cider, with hints of mint and getting then much grainier and mashier (porridge, oatcakes, mashed potatoes), with quite some liquorice to spice the whole up. Certainly pleasant as an everyday malt under Italian climates
restaurant Palate
the attack is pretty nice (nice caramel and toasted brioche) but it’s then very weak and almost falls apart after just two or three seconds, leaving room for some tannins and not much else. No middle and a very short finish, with just these tannins. I don’t know whether that’s a flaw but it’s extremely harmless to say the least. 70 points. Macallan 'Distiller's Choice’ (40%, OB, circa 2004) This version was for Japan
