Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔 속에 잠긴 깊은 호박빛이 1958년에서 1975년까지 흐른 17년의 시간을 비춘다. 그린 덤피 보틀에 담긴 하이랜드 파크 1958은 43도라는 절제된 도수로 50년대 오크니 증류소의 거친 매력을 곱게 풀어낸다. 향은 헤더 꿀과 옅은 피트 스모크, 마른 가죽의 향. 입에서는 보리 사탕과 마른 무화과, 짭조름한 미네랄이 풀바디 질감으로 흐른다. 60년대 이전 하이랜드 파크 특유의 깊이가 여운에 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold/pale amber
air Nose
again, this isn’t a very expressive HP at first nosing, even if it’s straighter and maybe a little more elegant than the 1979. Gets suddenly extremely orangey, with huge notes of orange liqueur, bitter oranges and Fanta. Whiffs of gunpowder and wet earth. Again, much straighter than the 1979 in spite of these big orangey notes. With water: there’s a little rubber now but it quickly disappears. It’s a little more vegetal globally (as often after reduction with water.) ‘Cleanly orangey’
restaurant Palate
very rich, candied, thick, starting all on jams (oranges again, plums, apricots…) and developing on nougat, honey and vanilla fudge. Almost ‘spoonable’. With water: we’re very close to very good officials now, the distillery being rather easily recognisable. ‘Phenolically honeyed’ (and what else?)
timer Finish
long and smooth at the same time, even more ‘OB’ now
