Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들면 옅은 앰버빛이 벽을 타고 흐르고 코를 대는 순간 젖은 자갈과 그을음, 타르 같은 서늘한 냄새가 먼저 밀려온다. 조금 더 들이마시면 쓴 오렌지와 민트 리큐어, 진한 에스프레소가 차례로 열린다. 한 모금 머금으면 말린 과일과 허브, 잼과 향신료가 한꺼번에 몰려오고 가죽과 구두약 같은 묵직한 결이 뒤를 받친다. 삼킨 뒤 마른 후추가 길고 깨끗하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
oh my! Probably a little less boldly aromatic than the 1959, and probably a little more phenolic and dry. Wet gravel, tar, soot, mint liqueur and bitter oranges. Superb notes of carnation, butter crème, honeydew, mint-flavoured tea… And big notes of morels. Wow. Espresso. Globally less sherried than the 1959 but maybe even more complex. The palate will determine which is our favourite…
restaurant Palate
extraordinary. It’s got everything. A movie-malt that keeps changing while remaining extremely coherent. Dried fruits, herbs, jams, spices, leather, shoe polish (tarry and phenolic), tobacco… Oh well, please call the anti-maltoporn brigade!
timer Finish
amazingly long, dry, clean… Superb pepper. We’re close to perfection
