Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 체리 리큐어와 황금빛 건포도, 카라멜라이즈드 오렌지가 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 캐모마일과 로즈마리 허브 티, 가죽과 볶은 몰트가 더해지며 복합적으로 발전한다. 팰럿은 43도임에도 몰트의 묵직함과 오렌지 껍질, 볶은 견과와 초콜릿이 거칠고 단단하게 흐른다. 셰리 캐스크에서 17년을 보낸 글렌파클라스답게 로버스트한 캐릭터가 명확하다. 피니시는 길게 초콜릿과 몰트가 이어지며 은근한 쓴맛이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark gold
air Nose
what strikes me first is a combination of cherry liqueur (guignolet) with drops of pastis, juicy golden raisins (not the dry black ones!) and many herbal teas such as chamomile and rosemary. Then it’s rather caramelised oranges, drops of Pimm’s No. 1, leather and more and more roasted malt and chocolate. It’s pretty complex and aromatic
restaurant Palate
starts very malty, with good body and even a certain roughness. A grassy side, orange zests, quite some oak, more malt, some roasted nuts, some chocolate, chestnuts, apple tart… It’s very robust malt whisky despite a relatively low strength, I find it rather rawer than its siblings in the range
timer Finish
long, very malt and chocolaty. Slightly bitter aftertaste
