Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 30년을 채운 깊은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 무겁게 흘러내린다. 코끝에 가져가면 발베니의 잘 익은 과일과 꿀, 오래된 오크의 향이 우아하게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 오랜 숙성이 빚은 토피와 오렌지의 단맛이 비단처럼 혀를 감싼다. 삼키면 묵은 참나무와 가벼운 향신료가 47도의 순한 결로 길게 이어지며 부드럽게 잦아든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
extremely smooth, yet compact attack, on light honey, flowers and oak. Not overly expressive in fact, but very elegant and refined. Gets quite buttery an creamy (hot cake, vanilla cream), with lots of wild ‘light’ flowers (dandelion, buttercup). Nice freshness! Whiffs of white pepper and white chocolate. Ravishing, even if not too bold. Some nice hints of camphor and turpentine develop after ten minutes or so, and it also gets more nervous
restaurant Palate
beautiful attack, bold and compact again. Lots of fruit jam and honey, with a dash of white pepper and traces of clove. Some very nice rooty notes too (gentian). Hints of rose jelly and Turkish delight. It’s not overly complex but again, so nicely compact and satisfying! The finish is long and coating, perhaps a tad too woody. An excellent all-rounder that will conquer anybody, not just maltheads. 88 points . Balvenie 30 yo ‘Thirty’ (47.3%, OB, 2004)
