Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 기름지고 두꺼운 인상에서 출발한다. 수액과 흙내, 오래된 책과 가죽, 잉크와 담배가 겹쳐진 뒤에야 대추야자와 무화과, 마멀레이드 같은 단 향이 올라온다. 시간이 지나면 멘톨과 이끼가 더해진다. 팰럿은 오일리한 질감 위로 허브 리큐어와 간장 같은 감칠맛, 옅은 피트 스모크와 감초가 순서대로 발전한다. 피니시는 매우 길고 단맛이 적어 짭짤한 광물성과 감초가 오래 남는다. 46도라고 믿기 어려운 밀도다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this is real old Macallan, with a seemingly much fatter profile, full of oils, saps and earths, then notes of old books and leathers, inks, tobacco, pitch… It’s only after that very tertiary barrage that fruitier and jammier notes take off, such as dates, figs and raisins, marmalade, cherry jam and all that. After ten minutes if rather becomes mentholy, in a beautiful way. Humus, moss, mushrooms…
restaurant Palate
yess. Old chartreuse plus old Grand-Marnier, fifty-fifty. Oily mouth feel (worm tubs and all that), herbs, jams, soy sauce, liqueurs, peat smokiness, liquorice, mineral things, mint drops, cigarette tobacco, pipe tobacco, a touch of salt… This bottle was brilliant. And it tastes like 46% vol
timer Finish
very long, with less sweetness – always good in any finish – and a lasting feeling of salty mineral things, plus liquorice
