Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 시리얼과 마른 살구가 가장 먼저 두드러지지만 64.9도 캐스크 스트렝스답게 알코올의 휘발성도 명확하다. 1966 빈티지의 34년 깊이가 강한 알코올을 단단하게 받친다. 팰럿에서는 캐러멜 본본과 짙은 단맛, 흰후추가 발전하고 ABV의 무게가 입천장을 묵직하게 덮는다. 피니시는 가죽과 마른 오크가 길게 이어지며 구조감이 견고하다. SMWS 2.36의 캐스크 분석적 가치가 또렷이 깃들어 있다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
we really aren't so far away from the 1990, there's a lot of resinous honeys, fir wood, dried flowers, exotic hardwoods, subtle waxes and also some big notes of long matured rums. This sense of convergence we often talk about when wood-aged spirits reach this kind of age. I'm also finding leafy tobaccos, lemon marmalade and some old yellow Chartreuse. Really quite a complex nose, I don't get the alcohol much at all. With water: many shades of bread, satsuma peel, mango, kumquat, sandalwood and this wonderfully fragrant herbaceous quality and a rather resinous fruitiness
restaurant Palate
ok, this is your wakeup call! A huge arrival, full of shoe polish, exotic hardwood resins, rums, tropical fruit jams, pollens, honeys, pressed flowers and various long-brewed herbal and exotic teas. Powerful, yet pretty brilliant. With water: pollens, flowers, waxes, verbena, wormwood and these extremely classical vibes of camphor, hessian and vapour rubs. Hugely detailed and intricate whisky
timer Finish
long, perfectly balanced between firm, peppery and warming qualities along with softer waxes, pollens, herbal teas and crystallised fruits
