Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 1968년 빈티지 보모어가 들려주는 열대 과일과 망고, 옅은 피트 연기가 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 40년의 긴 숙성을 거친 아일라 몰트답게 전설적인 과일 향이 노즈를 지배한다. 팰럿에서는 42.7도의 차분한 도수 위로 패션프루트와 꿀, 가벼운 그을음이 부드럽게 입을 채운다. 피니시는 길게 이어지며 잔잔한 피트와 시트러스, 마른 오크가 또렷하게 남는다. 올드 보모어 특유의 화려한 과일 구조감이 단단한 보틀이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
no big peat here, and no big fruitiness either. It’s rather one of these Bowmores that were at the crossroad of the big fresh fruitiness of the 1960s and of the higher peatiness of the mid to late 1970s. Bitter oranges and tangerines, sea air, leather, porridge, green bananas, apple peelings, plain grass, walnuts… It’s not a very expressive one for sure. Wee hints of spicy herbs do come through, rosemary, thyme… Also hints of seashells (clams). It’s rather complex but not very exuberant
restaurant Palate
more oomph and more ‘Bowmoreness’, starting on a lot of orange marmalade and quite some dried ginger and cardamom. Then salty oysters, cough medicine, mild peat, white pepper, very faint cardboardy notes. Notes of mango chutney. Whilst the attack was relatively smooth, it gets then bigger and bigger on your palate. Spicy Chinese sauce for dim-sums
timer Finish
long, even jammier, more citrusy, more in the 1960’s style. Again, faint notes of cardboard in the aftertaste. White pepper
