Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 셰리 버트가 남긴 짙은 호박빛이 유리를 타고 흐른다. 코를 가져가면 건포도와 대추, 구운 견과의 향이 먼저 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 2001년 글렌리벳이 11년 셰리 숙성으로 얻은 말린 과일과 가벼운 초콜릿이 50도의 또렷한 힘으로 번진다. 삼키고 나면 셰리의 단맛과 은은한 오크 탄닌이 혀 안쪽에 깊게 머물며 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
superbly fat and greasy old school distillate. A world of old took boxes, wax jackets, suet, bouillon, embrocations, hessian cloth and things like ink and earthy black teas. I also find roots, dried heather flowers, dried mint and old school Scottish beers. Really surprisingly complex as over time it starts to make you think of sandalwood and pollens too
restaurant Palate
excellent attack and power, lots of resinous fir wood, salted honey, mead, camphor and a rather herbal waxy quality. Still these impressions of ink and bouillon stock, but also nicely sooty now and going towards paraffin wax, mineral oils and tiger balm. Really a barley eau de vie that's been rounded by some very polite wood. Gets more herbal with tarragon, then fennel and wee hints of paprika too
timer Finish
medium, but very waxy, oily and almost greasy with these mechanical and sooty notes. But still a little minty and mentholated in the aftertaste
