Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 시간이 응축된 짙은 호박빛이 잔에 두텁게 흐른다. 1966년 보우모어가 35년의 침잠을 거쳐 하이 스피리츠 컬렉션의 스코티시 컬러리스츠로 풀려난 이 보틀링은 트로피컬 패션프루트와 망고, 신선한 해풍과 옅은 피트 연기의 우아한 향이 한꺼번에 솟구친다. 한 모금에 43.7도의 둥근 알코올이 잘 익은 파파야와 바닐라 카스타드, 헤더 꿀의 단맛을 매끄럽게 끌어온다. 보우모어 황금기의 잔향이 깊고 화사하게 식어간다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
an orgasmic combination of tropical fruits and a sooty smokiness. Like a tennis match between both universes, sometimes the passion fruits and mangos have the upper hand, sometimes it’s the very mineral peatiness. Watching the game: ham, seawater, high-end green tea, lemon, orange blossom, hessian and coriander/sorrel. What a game!
restaurant Palate
it could have been a little weak and dry at 35 years of age but it’s exactly the opposite that happens. Powerful citrus fruits and passion fruits with a magnificent ‘coastal’ peatiness. Brine, lemon juice, mangos, rocket salad, oysters, dill… Let’s shorten the litany, it’s just fab
timer Finish
medium long, ultra-clean, citrusy and rather more medicinal than other old Bowmores
