Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
하이랜드 북동 해안 브로라에 자리한 클라이넬리시는 특유의 밀랍 같은 질감과 짭조름한 풍미로 사랑받는다. 셰리 버트에서 12년을 보낸 이 1995년 원액은 잔에 짙은 호박빛을 띠고, 코끝에는 말린 과일과 밀랍, 옅은 바다 내음이 어우러진다. 입에서는 셰리의 단맛과 왁스, 옅은 소금기가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 57.3도의 힘이 곧게 뻗는다. 마무리에는 건포도와 짭조름한 광물 풍미가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
similar territories, but this one’s fatter, oilier, and rather more herbal (fern). It’s also greasier, with some suet, even some marrow, cold cuts, some camphor, some menthol… It was an even bigger distillate, but remember this one was rather distilled around the mid 1950s, which was before the distillery was converted to steam heating (1961). So this was direct-fired using coal, albeit probably not coal from the old Brora mine anymore. Brilliant, please call the Anti-Maltoporn Brigade immediately! With water: paraffin, fresh butter, linseed oil, new fabric, and lemon juice
restaurant Palate
best whisky made by men and women, period. Right, one of them. Huge brine, lime, soot, eucalyptus, grapefruits, paraffin and iodine, all that in perfect synch. As they say, this is like Captain Beefheart’s Magic Band after a bottle of bourbon. Each. With water: sweet Vishnu! Should Ettore Bugatti, or Enzo Ferrari have been distillers rather than carmakers, this is the kind of spirit they would have made. Good, I suppose they would have given better care to the design of the bottle as well
timer Finish
very long, salty, chalkier, with touches of lemon fizz. Incredibly bright and lively
