Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
엷은 황금빛이 잔 안에 잔잔히 비친다. 1964년 빈티지의 Bruichladdich를 28년간 숙성해 Gordon & MacPhail이 1994년 캐스크 스트렝스 50.6도로 병입한 보틀이다. 향에서는 흰 꽃과 짭조름한 아일라의 미네랄, 오래된 밀랍이 부드럽게 비친다. 입안에서는 시트러스 껍질과 바닐라 크림이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 묵은 보리의 단맛이 깊게 받쳐준다. 여운은 아일라 특유의 짭짤함과 오크의 마른 향이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
these metallic notes that we already had in the 1973 are back, this time it’s more silverware and even old copper coins. Also a little pitch, saltpetre, tarry ropes… And then the trademark melons, coming together with kumquats. And toasted brioche. In truth this is a lovely nose, a little ‘antique’. With water: haha, the sootiness becomes wonderful! It’s all just like nosing the engine compartment of an old supercar (a Trabant should work too). Oils, Bakelite, rubber, petrol, metals…
restaurant Palate
it is, in a way, the 1973 with more oomph and backbone, maybe in a less complex manner. The sooty/metallic aspects that we found in the nose are still there, but the fruits do make up for that. More or less the same fruits as in the 1973, grapefruits, peaches and such. With water: sadly, it doesn’t swim too well. The fruits sing louder – which is very pleasant of course – but there’s also a kind of rubbery cardboard arising. Too bad!
timer Finish
long, sappy. Quite some peat smoke too, I hadn’t detected it before. What a taster!
