Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 깊은 골짜기의 글렌리벳은 합법 증류의 선구자로 우아하고 꽃다운 원액을 빚어 왔다. 퍼스트필 올로로소 캐스크에서 29년을 보낸 잔에는 짙은 적갈색이 감돈다. 향은 말린 과일과 꿀, 견과가 또렷이 어우러진다. 57.9도의 입안은 건포도와 흑설탕, 오렌지의 단맛이 진하게 차오른다. 여운에는 카카오와 마른 향신료가 우아하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
ah, this is extremely interesting! Roughly the same whisky as the ‘Intertrade’ but with an obvious evolution. The smoke got bigger, the ‘rubbery and strawberry-like’ notes got rather less obvious, and there are added notes of chocolate, orange cake and toasted wood. The extra-7 years may have erased a part of what was a little too much in the 14yo, and have added extra-complexity. Now, both weren’t from the same cask, obviously, but still… With water: it’s almost the same whisky as the 14yo when watered down. As if the extra-7 years were useless. Quite some peat again, whiffs of garden bonfire… Even more smoke, actually
restaurant Palate
starts almost like the 14yo, only a little softer and better integrated, just like on the nose. More spices as well (gets very peppery after a moment – wood influence?) Still a little harsh. With water: almost the same as the Intertrade again. Maybe a tad fruitier and jammier
timer Finish
similar but no obvious peatiness at this stage
