Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 오래 묵은 짙은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 우아하게 흘러내린다. 코끝으로 가져가면 글렌리벳다운 잘 익은 사과와 흰 꽃, 꿀의 향이 섬세하게 피어오른다. 한 모금을 머금어 혀 위에서 굴리면 45.7도의 부드러운 기운 속에 배와 토피, 가벼운 향신료가 둥글게 번진다. 두 번째 모금을 삼키면 글렌리벳다운 잘 익은 배와 옅은 꽃향이 한층 섬세하게 번진다. 옛 방식으로 병입된 이 스페이사이드 위스키는 삼킨 뒤 과일과 꽃향의 잔향이 차분하게 이어진다.

ha, the Italians! This is a textbook example of a mineral, flinty, smoky, earthy Glenlivet from that period, that just bursts with tiny herbal smells, as if you would wander throughout a deep Scottish forest. Make that an English forest, they’re more, say luxuriant. I cannot not think of old Clynelish here, as any taster would get overwhelmed with graphite oil, old engine oils, whiffs of new leatherette, almond water, and Cuban cigars. Plus, indeed, mushrooms, dead leaves, and various mosses. I’m afraid this baby’s unstoppable
restaurant Palate
huge, punchy, very smoky, earthy, waxy, and mineral. Exactly the kind of malt that I prefer, and with a perfect strength to boot. It’s even to be wondered if at that time, Glenlivet weren’t buying bulk from up there in the North. No, that’s impossible, of course
timer Finish
long, immaculate, earthy, salty, smoky, and oh-so-elegantly mineral
