Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 옅은 금빛이 잔 벽을 매끄럽게 감돈다. 코끝으로 가져가면 1997년 링크우드의 꽃가루와 바닐라, 라임꽃과 이끼 향이 부드럽게 열린다. 엑스버번 호그스헤드에서 19년 보낸 스피사이드답게 52.6도의 결은 맑고 우아하다. 한 모금 머금으면 오렌지 리큐어와 사과, 옅은 소나무진과 생강이 흐른다. 넘긴 뒤에는 꿀과 바닐라, 파인애플 같은 열대감이 혀뿌리에 둥글게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
same yet again, but the cask has been a little more active. There’s more pollen, ‘sweet’ vanilla, chamomile, lime blossom, moss… All that is nice, very nice. With water: honey and fruit salad. Niiiiice
restaurant Palate
perfect, as far as middle-aged Speysiders go. The cask has definitely been more active, as you can feel a little pinesap, perhaps juniper, perhaps ginger… But all that works in sync, and really complements the orange liqueur and apples. Really very good! With water: the oak really comes out, and makes it feel a bit like some Linkwood from Kentucky, but that works a treat. Really. Hints of pineapples
timer Finish
medium, honeyed, vanilla-ed, rounded, and kind of tropical. No, we won’t mention pina colada again
