Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
브룩라디 1972는 진한 셰리가 밴 올드 스타일 보틀링으로, 노즈에서는 초콜릿과 간장, 말린 포르치니 버섯의 깊은 향에 블루베리잼과 온갖 건포도의 단내가 겹겹이 발전한다. 팰럿은 장미 리큐어와 리치, 귤의 달콤함에 스위트 포트와 랑시오의 복합미가 또렷하게 드러나며, 53.4도의 도수가 잼 같은 질감을 팽팽하게 받친다. 1972년 증류된 21년의 셰리가 균형을 단단하게 잡는다. 피니시는 길게 건포도와 말린 무화과의 잼 같은 여운이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark red amber

it’s one of these marvellous old sherried Bruichladdichs that reminds be of al old 10 for France that was very chocolaty as well. So chocolate, soy sauce, dried porcinis, walnut wine, then a touch of blueberry jam, then rather blood oranges, then truckloads of all kinds of raisins. There were also some sherried 1986s by the former new owners that were very great as well. With water: big saponification, so let’s wait… zzz zzz zzz… After 15 minutes: oh yes! Camphor, eucalyptus and raisins. A magical trio in (some) whisky

it’s jam! Superb notes of rose liqueur, litchis, plenty of tangerines, bags of raisins, more raisins, even more raisins… Some sweet Port as well, a touch of rancio, then tinned peaches, then ginger and pepper… It’s really old-style sweet sherry, and one cannot not think of pajarette. Spectacular sweet raisiny sherry. There’s even a little muscatel, perhaps. With water: raisins again, plus dried figs. Jam, not whisky
timer Finish
quite long, very jammy, very raisiny
