Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드의 맑은 강물과 온화한 풍토가 링크우드 1959의 섬세함을 길러냈다. 잔에는 옅은 황금빛이 맑게 어린다. 1959년 증류한 오래된 향은 들꽃과 사과, 마른 풀이 우아하게 올라온다. 43도의 부드러운 입에서는 보리 단맛과 가벼운 시트러스가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 반세기를 넘긴 고전 위스키답게 여운은 정갈하고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
wait a moment, I was mistaken, this is Sicilian olive oil blended with a few drops of moped fuel mix. Ex-Malaguti, perhaps? This kind of opulent fatness could only come from an old-school distillery, here ‘old’ Linkwood indeed. Lovely little hints of charcoal, setting spray, ink, grated lemon zest… It’s the fatness and texture on the nose that truly impress
restaurant Palate
to be honest, there’s a hint of soapiness, a touch of light-struck flavour, but the rest unfolds on plasticine, apple peel, walnut and almond skins, and above all that famously saline manzanilla character
timer Finish
same again, textured, oily, not showing its age in the slightest. The barley itself remains as well – just imagine, likely harvested in 1958!
