Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 감싸 쥐고 흔들면 리필 셰리 벗이 입힌 앰버빛이 잔 벽을 흐른다. 코끝에 가져가면 글렌파클라스 특유의 오렌지 마멀레이드와 부싯돌 향 위로 붉은 과일과 후추가 겹쳐 오른다. 한 모금을 머금으면 50.1도의 힘이 과일 잼과 향신료, 후추 뿌린 딸기의 단맛을 밀어 올린다. 혀로 굴리면 생강과 정향, 세비야 오렌지의 결이 26년 셰리 숙성 속에서 살아난다. 천천히 삼키면 과일과 건포도가 가죽과 담뱃잎을 남기고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
starts on full orangey mode (marmalade, dried ones), with also a most pleasant flintiness. Gets then both fruitier (more small red fruits) and peppery (big whiffs of freshly ground black pepper), with also a little leather and tobacco. Keeps developing for a long time, getting then beautifully waxy and leafy. This one needs time, as it started rather simply but got then wonderful. Say 15 minutes min!
restaurant Palate
goody good attack, once again maybe not extremely complex but the combination of fruit jams and spices is most enjoyable. Peppered strawberries? Other than that we have, at random: ginger, cloves, blackberry jelly, Seville oranges, fresh walnuts, tea, other spices and herbs… Excellent
timer Finish
rather long, maybe a tad simpler and more on burnt fruits (raisins on a cake) but still excellent
