Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔 벽에 코를 바짝 붙이면 건포도와 말린 무화과, 대추야자가 층층이 밀려온다. 잔을 돌리면 박하 사탕과 전나무, 에스프레소가 그 사이로 비집고 나온다. 57도를 한 모금 머금으면 거의 끈적할 만큼 진한 과일 케이크가 혀를 덮고 커피 리큐어와 마멀레이드가 뒤를 잇는다. 삼키고 나면 올로로소를 닮은 마른 호두 맛이 길게 이어지며 어두운 앰버빛 인상을 그대로 확인시킨다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
essentially Macallan, with all the raisins, dried figs and dates of the creation, plus touches of thin mints, cough syrup, fir wood, and espresso coffee. I think it’s the sappy/honeyed combination in the background that gives it away. There are also flints and a little wood smoke. A big dram, actually subtler than I remembered, but that maybe be OBE. With water: oh great, fern, autumn leaves, beef stock, Grisons meat, even marrow soup…
restaurant Palate
very potent, almost viscous, and extremely rich. Did someone invent fruitcake after this, or was it the other way around? Many many raisins, also coffee liqueur, and an ‘intense’ (MJ’s very word) fruitcake-iness. Under that thick raisiny layer, notes of cough medicine, pine liqueur, and a little charcoal. Plus marmalade, of course. With water: it’s pretty perfect and seemingly more herbal/pine-y that the low-strength young Macs from that period of time
timer Finish
very long, and rather more oloroso-ish, that is to say drier. Walnuts and all that
