Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들고 코를 깊이 넣으면 그을음과 구두약, 낡은 양철 상자 냄새가 한꺼번에 밀려온다. 과일은 거의 없고 대신 약초 리큐어와 마른 먼지 같은 냄새가 좁고 또렷하게 이어진다. 한 모금 머금으면 그을음과 마른 허브, 프로폴리스와 녹차가 혀를 건조하게 훑고 박하와 감초가 점점 커진다. 삼킨 뒤에는 커민 같은 향신료가 짧게 남으며 전시에 증류된 성격을 드러낸다.

air Nose
soot this time, a lot of soot! And shoe polish, leather, metal (old tin box), herbal liqueurs… In truth it’s very herbal, sooty and smoky and there are almost no fruits. There’s also a little dust – nice dust – but this wartime Macallan has probably got the narrowest nose of them all. Unless the 1940 to come is even narrower…
restaurant Palate
spectacularly sooty and dry once again. Herbs, that propolis that we already found in the 1946, green tea, some chlorophyll, then more and more (and more) mint and liquorice… It could almost be a very old bottle of herbal liqueur, between chartreuse and Fernet Branca. Slightly drying…
timer Finish
not the longest and it’s quite dry. Some cumin
