Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가까이 하면 1964년 증류된 노령주답게 잘 익은 망고와 파파야의 열대 과일 향이 명확하게 드러나고, 브룩라디 본연의 비피트 캐릭터가 화사한 꽃향과 함께 발전한다. 팰럿은 30년 숙성과 50도 도수가 만나 농축된 과일 시럽과 오크의 가벼운 스파이스가 균형을 이룬다. 중반부터 밀랍과 꿀의 질감이 입을 감싼다. 피니시는 잘 마른 허브와 오크의 여운이 은은하게 길다. 오래된 아일라 비피트의 정제된 표본이다.
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!
