Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노을빛이 감도는 적동색이 잔 안에 깊게 내려앉는다. 포트 캐스크에서 31년을 보낸 글렌파클라스는 잘 익은 붉은 자두와 라즈베리, 다크 초콜릿향을 차곡차곡 풀어놓는다. 한 모금 머금으면 포도 잼과 흑설탕, 마른 장미의 향이 부드럽게 번지고 42.8도의 낮은 도수가 비단처럼 매끄럽게 흐른다. 여운에는 코코아와 마른 베리, 옅은 오크 향신료가 잔잔히 잠겨 길고 우아하게 사라진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
I think the Port remains very noticeable after all these years, not that much because of more sweetness or fruitiness, rather because of these notes of leaves, buds and stems… between cherry and blackcurrant. Eglantine tea, menthol, porridge, butter, leather and traces of hardboiled eggs. It’s an unusual one!
restaurant Palate
much, much, and I mean much sweeter now but these leathery notes remain. Also blood oranges, honey, marmalade, aniseed and pepper. Slightly cabernety as well (I know, no cabernet in Port). Anyway, I like the palate much better than the nose, which doesn’t happen that often with old whiskies
timer Finish
rather long, jammier and spicier. Red berries jam, cardamom and green curry
