Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 1968년의 세월이 빚은 진한 적갈색이 유리에 깊게 감긴다. 코를 가져가면 매캘런 스페이몰트다운 건포도와 무화과, 오래된 가죽의 향이 깊게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 41년 셰리 숙성이 다듬은 농축된 과실미가 43도의 부드러운 몸으로 혀를 감싼다. 삼키고 나면 다크초콜릿과 향신료, 오크의 여운이 입안에 깊게 머물며 오랜 시간을 길게 풀어놓는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
oh yes oh yes oh yes oh yes. Pencil eraser, pollen, many honeys, beeswax, stearin, broom and gorse, old hardwoods (we used to mention dashboards of old Jaguars), tangerine and citron liqueurs, lime blossom, zucchini flowers, acacia, and hundreds of different nectars. Probably one of the most floral whiskies you could ever nose
restaurant Palate
of course there is a little fragility, and indeed 'their' Glen Grants, Glenlivets or Longmorns are superior, but this is all subtleness, floralness, honeyness and… cakes and teas. Earl grey and amaretti. In short, whisky for your Five O'clock tea in an old Scottish hotel such as The Balmoral in Edinburgh. Touristy, carpet everywhere, incredibly out of fashion and even rather dusty in all senses of that word, but if you never did this, do it at least once. Better book
