Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1964년 빈티지의 짙은 황금빛이 잔에 깊게 잠겨 있다. 향에서는 마른 해초와 왁스, 옅은 트로피컬 과일이 차례로 일어서고, 60년대 보모어 특유의 전설적인 캐릭터가 그 사이로 또렷이 비친다. 입에서는 부드러운 망고와 시트러스 껍질, 옅은 훈연이 49.9도에 실려 입천장을 천천히 덮는다. 25년 숙성에서 다듬어진 절제된 피트와 트로피컬 톤의 결합이 또렷하고, 마른 해초와 오크의 잔향이 길고 깊게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
yaaah! As an example of that style, it’s perfect. Orange bonbons, Parma violets, lavender ice cream (a trendy thing in Provence, but mainly British tourists like that… wait, that may explain a few things about these Bowmores ;-))… Then ink and chalk. New plastic pouch at the supermarket (well where they still use those). With water: doesn’t swim too well, gets very chalky/inky
restaurant Palate
not that bad, not that bad – and even Saint Columba of Iona knows I’m not a fan of this style. I find it chemical and plastic-like again, but I feel I need to add that the citrusy/candied notes as well as the peaty smoke work well on the palate. In any case, it’s probably a late-period ‘Bowmore-of-that-style’, because earlier ones had less peat – and even more lavender. With water: rounder and sweeter. Grapefruit marmalade, plus some salt and some ashes
timer Finish
long, ashy. The lavender and the violets are still there
