Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들면 짙은 금빛 아래에서 타르와 고무를 닮은 독특한 향이 먼저 튀어나온다. 조금 두었다 코를 대면 마멀레이드와 마르멜로, 마지팬과 가죽 향이 차례로 자리를 잡는다. 한 모금 머금으면 57.9도가 기름진 질감으로 혀를 덮고 비터 오렌지와 감초가 이어진다. 물을 조금 타면 후추와 말린 과일, 겨자씨 같은 향이 새로 열린다. 삼킨 뒤에는 송진 같은 쌉쌀함과 마지팬의 단맛이 함께 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
a fairly similar attack on the nose, with the same rubbery notes as well as a little tar, but this one is easier on the fruitcake and harder on marmalade and quinces. Nice notes of marzipan and leather (the Ferrari’s seats, I guess) coming through after a while. With water: same kind of development as with the OB. Please re-read above ;-)
restaurant Palate
exactly the same comments as for the nose, there are many similarities with the OB but this one is easier on the sherry hence a tad more playful. Very oily, with some bitter oranges, marzipan again, something between pine resin and rubber (just hints), some liquorice… Still a big, thick Macallan. With water: excellent. Spices, pepper, many dried fruits, touches of sweet mustard, blackcurrants…
timer Finish
long, slightly resinous, coating, with some marzipan and marmalade in the aftertaste
