Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 익은 금빛이 안에서 느리게 일렁인다. 코를 가져가면 글렌리벳다운 잘 익은 과일과 꿀, 트래디셔널 오크의 부드러운 바닐라가 어우러져 올라온다. 잔을 다시 흔들면 오렌지와 옅은 향신료가 더해진다. 한 모금 머금으면 49도의 부드러운 도수 속에서 배와 시트러스, 옅은 향신료와 꿀이 천천히 풀린다. 30년 숙성이 스페이사이드의 우아함에 깊이를 더했다. 삼킨 뒤에는 과일 단맛과 바닐라가 혀에 잔잔하게 오래 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ahwowowow! The most subtle and superb combination of dried fruits, everything in a beehive, almond oil and similar smells plus anything preciously woody. To be more precise, we have figs and dates, honeydew and beeswax, almond oil and fresh ‘high-end’ putty and notes of old cupboard, cigar box and old books (or well kept antique shop). It’s all very complex and fantastically mingled, like if it was a very old Sauternes from a great vintage. Totally infectious, I can’t see who wouldn’t adore this nose, even people who usually hate scotch
restaurant Palate
maybe just a tad dry at first sip but then it keeps unfolding in fantastic sequences. Honey and roasted nuts, cake, Corinth raisins, dog rose hips, chewing tobacco, liquorice, bitter chocolate, a little cardamom… Ah well, this is endless and, above all, absolutely not tired despite the low strength
timer Finish
not too long and maybe a tad drier and tea-ish but additional notes of oriental pastries in the aftertaste really make it even more fantastic
