Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 빙 돌려 향을 모으면 1967년의 세월이 깃든 짙은 호박빛이 유리벽을 따라 흘러내린다. 코끝에 가져가면 32년 묵은 아드벡다운 부드러워진 토탄 연기와 건포도, 트로피컬 과일향이 겹겹이 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 47.5도의 둥근 질감 위로 옅은 그을음과 흑설탕, 짭짤한 광물감이 혀를 감싼다. 셰리 숙성답게 삼키고 나면 묵은 훈연과 마른 과일이 길고 깊게 맴돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
starts peatier, closer to the distillery, even if it’s not as expressive. Whiffs of peonies, blackcurrant buds and beer (a strange mixture indeed), then fir honeydew, mint sauce, dill… A little camphor… It gets more and more on ‘Ardbeg’… A very long development, very complex. More and more on cough syrup and old nuts, then cinchona (Campari)
restaurant Palate
one that slowly takes you by the sides, soothingly (is that maltoporn or what?) Notes of wormwood, earl grey tea, kumquats, mint liqueur, verbena… Then small bitter oranges. Superb smokiness, bitter chocolate from the best makers, curcuma… Excellent old Ardbeg
timer Finish
not immensely long but balanced, subtly resinous and herbal. Just a tad drying but that’s normal. 93 points. Ardbeg 32 yo 1967/1999 (47.5%, Douglas Laing OMC, 185 bottles) ‘A green Ardbeg’
