Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 하이랜드 파크의 1978년 원액이 깊은 호박빛으로 잔에 잠긴다. 코를 가져가면 30년이 빚은 헤더 꿀과 말린 과일 위로 오크니 특유의 옅은 훈연이 비친다. 잔을 더 흔들면 졸인 과일과 향신료가 짙어진다. 한 모금 머금으면 48.1도의 술이 꿀의 단맛과 부드러운 연기를 혀에 얹는다. 삼킨 뒤에는 헤더 꿀과 은은한 피트의 우아한 여운이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
exactly the same whisky as the Lonach on the nose, only with more oomph. Maybe added hints of passion fruits. So let’s move on if you please…
restaurant Palate
once again, it’s the same whisky with more oomph at first sipping, it’s quite troubling. Probably neighbouring casks. The main difference is that this one further develops on orange liqueur, various honeys, a little vanilla custard, gooseberries (big) and pomegranate, then roasted peanuts and finally a very lively citrusy side. Tastes younger and younger, as if it was ageing backwards in your glass. Funny and unusual
timer Finish
medium long, with the oak’s spices really kicking in now. A lot of cinnamon plus a little ginger and cloves. Drier in the aftertaste despite notes of apple liqueur and mint
