Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
밝은 황금빛이 잔 속에서 환하게 빛난다. 퍼스트 필 배럴에서 24년을 보낸 글렌리벳은 스페이사이드의 대표 증류소답게 잘 익은 배와 꿀, 바닐라의 향을 정갈하게 풀어낸다. 55.6도의 또렷한 술이 혀를 감싸며 오렌지 껍질과 시리얼, 옅은 향신료의 결이 균형 있게 드러난다. 깔끔하고 산뜻한 단맛이 선명하게 자리 잡고, 꿀과 보리의 여운이 길게 이어진다.
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
