Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들면 옅은 금빛이 얇게 벽을 훑고 내려온다. 코를 가져가면 피노 셰리처럼 마른 기운이 먼저 오고 생호두와 사과 껍질, 아몬드가 이어진다. 더 맡으면 건초와 가죽, 희미한 바닷모래의 기척까지 잡힌다. 한 모금을 머금으면 향보다 둥글고 달게 풀리면서 시트러스와 생강이 또렷해지고 자두 증류주 같은 뉘앙스가 스친다. 삼킨 뒤에는 생강과 풀, 비터 오렌지의 쌉쌀함이 51.8도의 힘을 타고 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
this baby’s completely different and certainly as dry and leafy as some true fino – or manzanilla for that matter. Bags of fresh walnuts, apple peelings, almonds and plain grass as well as something faintly coastal, maybe beach sand. Goes on with some hay and leaves, leather and just touches of orange squash. Not really lush, to say the least, one of the drier Macallans out there, even if it does get a little fruitier over time
restaurant Palate
rounder and sweeter, and very pleasantly citrusy, with also quite some ginger and cinchona, with something slightly fizzy. Also a little resinous and maybe eau-de-vie-ish (plum spirit) before it starts to gear towards bitter oranges. Walnuts
timer Finish
long, gingery and grassy. Pepper and bitter oranges in the aftertaste
