Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 1979년 증류된 술이 깊은 호박빛으로 잔 안에서 일렁인다. 코끝에 가져가면 글렌리벳의 잘 익은 복숭아와 꿀, 오래된 밀랍 향이 우아하게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 35년 숙성이 빚은 토피와 열대 과일의 단맛이 부드럽게 혀를 감싼다. 삼키면 묵은 오크와 가벼운 흙내음이 51도의 결로 혀 안쪽에 길게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
it is more ‘Glenlivety’ than the 1981, thanks to some much milder sherry – provided it’s sherry cask, but in that case it’s Xth-fill. That means that we find overripe apples again, almond oil, some light honey, blond tobacco, fresh walnuts yet again, maybe drops of sunflower oil, just bits and pieces of old leather (grandma’s patch box)… In truth, the jury’s still out, this could be either fantastically subtle, or rather flat. With water: it’s not flat. This is a walk in the forest after a summer rain, or in an old herbalist’s shop
restaurant Palate
if you love porcinis and other mushrooms as much as I do, this is for you. Lemon liqueur with porcini powder. How funny, how good. With water: delicate spices, crystallised citrus, mints, a drop of cough syrup, some bitter herbs
timer Finish
medium, on various herbal spices from the oak. Only the aftertaste is a bit too drying and green, which makes it lose one or two points
