Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
검붉은 마호가니가 잔 안쪽 깊은 곳에 잠겨 있다. 1949년 글렌리벳이 리필 셰리 버트에서 74년을 머문 거의 신화적인 시간이 향에 가득하다. 잘 익은 무화과와 가죽, 다크 초콜릿, 오래된 도서관의 종이가 차례로 깨어난다. 입에서는 49.3도의 절제된 알코올이 끓인 자두와 호두, 다크 토피, 가벼운 정향을 풀어 놓는다. 74년의 시간이 입천장을 덮으며 마지막까지 흔들림 없이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold. Great news already
air Nose
the freshness is just incredible. Actually, it's all on various honeys and waxes, pollens, nectars, dried figs, polished old furniture and old leather, and one of the greatest vintages of Yquem. Yes, I know. You might add touches of tropical fruit jams and whiffs of fern and moss. This is highly impressive, the maturity is splendid while there are no single signs of over-aging. Not one
restaurant Palate
bags and bags of citrusy and waxy herbs have kept it as fresh as a 12 yo Clynelish (do not exaggerate, S.) Think yellow chartreuse and old Bénédictine, plus the subtlest mead and a drop of elderflower liqueur. In the background, myriads of assorted herbal and fruity molecules are dancing an endless jig. You'd even find notes of very old rums, such as G&M's famous and quasi-surreal Long Pond 1941
timer Finish
long. Remember what they say, one second per year, so that's 74 seconds, more than one minute! Notes of piney raisins in the aftertaste
