Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1970년 증류해 24년을 보낸 이 킹스버리 보틀링은 노즈부터 여느 맥캘란과 결이 다르다는 점이 명확하게 드러난다. 뱅쇼와 정향, 주니퍼가 앞서고 다크 초콜릿과 간장, 발사믹의 짙은 향으로 발전한다. 팰럿은 46도임에도 기름지고 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르며 럼에 절인 건포도와 무화과, 랑시오의 산화 뉘앙스가 중심을 잡는다. 짙은 마호가니 색이 암시하는 무게가 입에서 그대로 확인된다. 피니시는 길고 짭짤한 여운 뒤 블랙베리 젤리로 닫힌다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark mahogany
air Nose
yes, this is extremely different from any other Macallan. Starts on heady notes of mulled wine, cloves, big juniper berries, spearmint and coffee toffee and gets then more classically sherried, with the dark chocolate upfront and then notes of soy sauce, balsamico and barbecued beef. Also cigar box, thuja wood and very ripe blackberries. What’s quite incredible is that the whole is still quite fresh and lively, and certainly not sluggish. I like it
restaurant Palate
thick, oily, rich, not weak at all despite the 40%, and more of a classic now. Heavy notes of rum-soaked raisins, figs, old rancio (huge!) and orange and herbs liqueur (like that famous Dantziger Goldwasser). Gets then spicier, mainly on cloves and pepper, with very funny hints of mescal as well. Excellent, really
timer Finish
long, coating, rich but clean and pure, with a faint saltiness as the signature and an aftertaste on blackberry jelly. Excellent sherried Macallan, certainly not on the same planet as its bros from 1980 and later
