Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 1974년 빈티지 글렌리벳의 짙은 호박빛이 잔 벽을 따라 부드럽게 흐른다. 코끝에 가져가면 34년의 숙성이 길어낸 말린 살구, 오렌지 마말레이드, 옅은 박하 향이 가장 먼저 솟아오른다. 한 모금을 머금으면 50.9도의 알코올이 꿀과 시나몬 토스트를 입천장에 둥글게 밀어 올린다. 삼키면 갓 구운 쇼트브레드와 묵은 시가가 길게 따라오며 70년대 스페이사이드 거장의 우아한 결이 또렷이 깃든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
all elegance, even evanescence. Shy and subtle after the 18 for Barretto, but the profile is similar, with all things from a deep forest, you just have to nose deeper. Autumn leaves, moss, mushrooms and all that. Quite bizarrely, there’s also quite a lot of Glenlivet’s current marker (in my opinion), overripe apples and pears. Also a touch of butter, perhaps old books, certainly a few hazelnuts. The whole’s rather light, but it’s its elegance that counts. Less smoke than I had thought
restaurant Palate
there, smoke, and mineral oils, and smoked ham, and some brine, and these funny fruit rolls that some are covering with salt in some countries. Yeah, probably in Scandinavia. It’s got the body of an old white wine, so I guess we could call it ‘thin’, but on the other hand, I do not find anything cardboardy or flattish. What’s more, the salt tends to come to the front
timer Finish
rather short, but if you like a saltiness in your whisky, you’d love this. Again, no cardboard and no tea. Cantaloupe and a little mead in the aftertaste
