Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 돌리면 맑은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 부드럽게 번진다. 코를 가까이 하면 발베니 싱글 배럴 특유의 진한 꿀과 바닐라, 잘 익은 배 향이 따뜻하게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 21년 숙성한 매끈한 질감 위로 아메리칸 오크의 달콤한 향신료와 보리 단맛이 번진다. 47.8도로 잔잔히 삼킨 뒤에도 꿀과 오크의 부드러운 단맛이 혀끝에 오래 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it is more Balvenie than Shiraz if you ask me, and-we-shall-not-complain. Plums, mirabelles, zwetschke (damson), plus vanilla and croissants au beurre, also quinces and yellow flowers as well as a little nougat and popcorn. Hurray, how very Balvenie!
restaurant Palate
you do feel an unusual peony and cherry-led spiciness at first, with wee touches of red bell pepper too, but once again Balvenie's taking over, with lovely plums coated with a little coconut and nutmeg, plus pomegranate sherbet. Yep. To be honest the whole tends to become a tad unbalanced after fifteen seconds, not too sure about this coconut either, but there, it's good fun and life needs differences. Vive les differences!
timer Finish
medium, always with these pomegranates, this bell pepper, these touches of juniper, rosé gin…
