Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
다른 배치보다 옅은 골드빛이 잔 벽을 타고 미끄러진다. 60도라는 높은 도수에 비해 글렌파클라스 105의 노즈는 의외로 절제되어, 아몬드와 풀내음, 포리지가 먼저 열리고 몇 분 뒤 셰리의 초콜릿과 체리향이 뒤따른다. 강렬한 입안엔 사과와 정원 과실, 자두 오드비가 높은 알코올을 타고 밀려오고, 물을 더하면 카다멈과 후추의 결이 살아난다. 오일리한 여운은 길게 남아 배의 잔향으로 잠긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold, paler than other batches
air Nose
much, much less sherry than in the 104 but it’s not really more powerful despite the higher strength. More almonds and grass as well as a little porridge. Now, the sherry kicks in after a few minutes, the whole getting rather closer to the undiluted 104, including these kirschy and faintly rubbery notes and quite some chocolate. With water: farmyard, hay and grains. Much less sherry
restaurant Palate
very powerful, kind of cleaner than the 104, with lots of apples and other garden fruits. Plum spirit and almond liqueur, all that at very high strength. Frankly, it’s a tad hard to enjoy at full strength (S., you sissy!) With water: once again, water worked well even if this one is more herbal and slightly bitter than the 104. Cardamom, a little wasabi, pepper… Also pears and apples
timer Finish
long, ‘natural’, leaving an oiliness on your palate. Pears in the aftertaste
