Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 맑은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 따라 가늘게 흐른다. 코끝에 가져가면 스페이사이드 글렌리벳다운 잘 익은 사과와 꿀, 바닐라가 우아하게 피어오른다. 한 모금을 머금으면 30년을 리필 아메리칸 호그스헤드에서 보낸 시간이 배와 보리엿으로 풀리고 54.4도의 힘이 혀를 또렷이 누른다. 삼킨 뒤에는 시트러스와 오크의 여운이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep orangey gold
air Nose
wow, a beautifully concentrated style that is much closer to the various legendary 1972s. Can you use 'notes of 1972 Glen Grant' in a 1990 Glenlivet tasting note? Seriously, bags of honey, mature dessert wines, nectars, pollens, yellow plums, fruit salad juices and wee touches of melon and pineapple. Pure class! With water: some leafy tobacco, more pollen, dried flowers, turmeric, hessian cloth and other lighter fabric notes
restaurant Palate
holds up extremely well. A firm arrival with lots of soft wood spices, quince jelly, cloves, nutmeg, lanolin, preserved citrus peels and some kumquat and wee waxy touches. I think, given blind, I'd say it was from a much earlier era of production. With water: evolves a lot of these soft wood spice and sandalwood tones. Dried out flowers, citrus rinds, spiced marmalade and flower honey on brown toast. Elegant and yet still with good power
timer Finish
long, gently warming, spicy and peppery. Lingering impressions of honeycomb waxes, dried flowers, tobacco, moss and lemon rinds
