Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 옅은 금빛이 잔벽을 미끄러져 흐른다. 코를 가까이 가져가면 깨끗하기로 이름난 링크우드답게 들꽃과 풋사과, 그 위로 갓 깎은 풀과 레몬의 향이 산뜻하게 올라온다. 26년을 보낸 이 위스키를 한 모금 머금으면 53도가 부드럽게 퍼지며 배와 바닐라의 단맛이 혀를 가볍게 감싼다. 삼키면 꽃향기 섞인 시트러스가 입안을 깔끔하게 정돈하며 사라진다.
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
