Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
연한 금빛이 잔에 옅게 깔린다. 향은 사과 주스와 사이더의 상큼함이 먼저 오르고 이어 민트가 스치며 오트케이크와 곡물의 구수함이 자리를 잡는다. 40도의 입맛은 캐러멜과 구운 브리오슈의 고소함으로 기분 좋게 열리지만 곧 힘을 놓고 나무의 떫음으로 옮겨간다. 스콧몰트 이름으로 1999년에 병입된 이 위스키는 무게보다 편안함을 택한 일상용 몰트에 가깝고, 짧은 여운이 담백하게 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
not shy at all, starting on lots of apple juice and cider, with hints of mint and getting then much grainier and mashier (porridge, oatcakes, mashed potatoes), with quite some liquorice to spice the whole up. Certainly pleasant as an everyday malt under Italian climates
restaurant Palate
the attack is pretty nice (nice caramel and toasted brioche) but it’s then very weak and almost falls apart after just two or three seconds, leaving room for some tannins and not much else. No middle and a very short finish, with just these tannins. I don’t know whether that’s a flaw but it’s extremely harmless to say the least. 70 points. Macallan 'Distiller's Choice’ (40%, OB, circa 2004) This version was for Japan
