Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 구식 맥캘란의 전형을 보여준다. 잘 맞아떨어진 셰리 위로 볶은 견과와 장미, 재스민이 겹치고 짙은 꿀과 말린 무화과, 새 시가 상자의 향이 차례로 드러난다. 흙내와 땅콩버터 뉘앙스까지 더해져 향의 층이 두껍다. 팰럿은 홍차와 후추 같은 우드 영향이 앞서고 말린 과일과 마멀레이드가 뒤를 받치지만 40도의 도수가 무게를 덜어낸다. 피니시는 짧은 편이며 호두 케이크의 여운이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark gold/light amber
air Nose
clearly something old-school Macallan, with a rather perfect sherry indeed, many roasted nuts, rather rose and jasmine this time, dark honeys, dried figs and dates, blueberry muffins, a fresh box of cigars, a little parsley and mint, some black earth (potting soil) and peanut butter… This really is an awesome nose, despite the strength. But low strengths rather feel on your palate…
restaurant Palate
not as 'peacocky' on the palate, but this was to be expected. Once again the wood feels a little bit, with more black tea and pepper, while the distillate would try to shoot dried fruits, marmalade and roasted nuts. Sadly, it remains a little weak and thin, which I find frustrating. Why 40% vol.!
timer Finish
shortish, nuttier. Walnut cake and marmalade in the even shorter aftertaste
