Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
옅은 금빛이 잔에 맑게 어린다. 하이랜드 클라이넬리시가 1996년 버번 통에서 24년을 보낸 이 위스키는, 증류소 특유의 기름진 왁스 질감을 또렷하게 드러낸다. 향에는 꿀과 밀랍, 잘 익은 배와 옅은 소금기가 어우러져 솟아오른다. 한 모금에는 바닐라와 시트러스, 왁스 같은 매끈함이 단단하게 번지고, 54.6도의 도수가 풍미를 또렷하게 받친다. 오랜 숙성이 더한 둥근 깊이가 인상적이며, 여운에는 꿀과 밀랍의 기운이 곱고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
a different kind of complexity. Olivier feels the sugary side of the grains, notes of Gueuze, a touch of yeast, stone fruits, mirabelles, peaches… A touch of sawdust too, bark, young dry white Bordeaux… A little less emotion than in the others. Improves over time, with more aromatic herbs, lemon grass, lime… Dave finds it slow to open but worth the wait. A little ozonic, he says. He also finds fried plantains, ginger and ginseng. With water: more perfumed, with some pear tart. Also more classic Clynelish wax, wet limestone, a little menthol. Becomes purer
restaurant Palate
creamy, fruity, powerful. Very thick, needs concentration. White fruits and not much wax at this point, which is a little surprising. With water: sir, it’s a revolution! Opens up, everything comes out, first wax then more white fruits, grapefruits, that salinity… Dave thinks it really needs water
timer Finish
long, on more or less the same notes. Some ash
