Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이강이 휘감아 도는 크레겔라키 언덕, 매캘란이 자리한 스페이사이드의 풍토가 이 1968년 빈티지에 깊이 배어 있다. 잔에는 오랜 세월이 빚은 진한 호박빛이 감돈다. 잔을 기울이면 말린 무화과와 오렌지 껍질, 오래된 가죽 향이 천천히 피어오른다. 34년 숙성이 빚어낸 입안은 부드러운 꿀과 견과, 은은한 향신료가 묵직하게 입을 채운다. 40도라는 절제된 도수 덕에 마무리는 따뜻한 토피와 오크의 여운으로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
light gold
air Nose
it really is very okay, vanilla-ed, malty, and fruity (plums, oranges and citrons). I wouldn’t say there’s a lot to add, except that it tends to become a little earthier, with touches of moist old wood, which is certainly not un-nice. All in all, a nice freshness
restaurant Palate
perhaps a little weak and short, because of the low strength, which makes it frustrating, especially since the profile is most pleasant, fresh, citrusy, and even kind of joyous. Really like these notes of Fruit Loops and jelly babies, candied angelica, and dried apple rings… Really, too bad it’s a little, say disembodied
timer Finish
very short. Did we just have whisky?
