Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 1966년이 빚어 둔 짙은 호박빛이 잔 벽을 따라 흐른다. 코를 가까이 가져가면 보모어 1966의 21년 셰리 우드 숙성이 빚어낸 열대 과일과 옅은 토탄 연기, 가죽이 가장 먼저 인사한다. 한 모금을 머금으면 43도가 입천장을 매끈하게 채우며 망고와 패션프루트, 다크초콜릿이 따라온다. 프레스턴필드 보틀링을 삼키면 황금 시대 보모어의 전설이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
not at all, sir! A wonderful profile, all made of elegant, light, maritime peat, fresh blood oranges (a little less ‘acidulated’ than regular ones), passion fruits, smoke (fireplace), shoe polish and something faintly metallic that’s often to be found in Bowmores from that era in our opinion. Very nice nose, getting a tad rounder and mellower after a few minutes, more honeyed. Loses a little ‘vivacity’
restaurant Palate
a punchy attack, they honeyed notes being right there together with quite some pepper and ginger. Gets then a little thick and faintly cardboardy and drying at the same time, maybe lacking a little more depth. As expected, there’s also a lot of salt. Really makes you salivate
timer Finish
a little short, maybe a little more on fruit drops. Less smoky but even saltier
