Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 돌리면 1966년 빈티지의 짙은 호박빛이 잔 벽에 두꺼운 흔적을 남기며 흘러내린다. 잔을 코끝에 가져가면 말린 다크 프루트와 탄 설탕, 가죽의 향이 64.6도의 알코올과 함께 강하게 들어선다. 한 모금을 머금으면 34년 숙성이 빚어낸 흑설탕과 시가 박스, 호두 껍질이 입천장을 묵직하게 채운다. 글렌리벳 SMWS 보틀링의 단단한 구조감이 다크 초콜릿 잔향과 길게 이어진다.
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
