Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가까이 하면 부나하벤 특유의 짭조름한 바닷바람과 구운 견과, 마른 과일이 명확하게 드러난다. 1987년 증류해 29년을 채운 원액은 아일라 몰트답지 않게 피트 없이 깊은 결을 보여준다. 팰럿은 호두 기름과 오렌지, 가벼운 가죽으로 발전하며 해안가다운 미네랄이 중심을 잡는다. 46도의 질감이 부드럽고 균형 잡혀 있다. 피니시는 소금기와 마른 과일로 길게 이어지며 노숙한 깊이가 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
very dark amber
air Nose
full oloroso mode, with litres of walnut wine, prune juice, and quite frankly, some old Armagnac. Huge notes of pipe tobacco as well, chocolate, black toffee, and the obligatory fruitcake. In the background, a few winey touches, cassis, drops of old balsamic vinegar, an a flinty touch. No sulphur whatsoever, having said that
restaurant Palate
totally old-school sherry, with wheelbarrows of black raisins and a camphory/mentholy side over it. A notch more Moscately on the palate, but that’s all fine, this is no savage fast finishing (as seen elsewhere). Almost forgot to mention these dried dates and figs, the kind of combo that almost always comes with proper sherry
timer Finish
long, a tad drier and more flinty. Some tobacco while the walnuts are back
