Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 술이 잔 벽을 따라 기름지게 흘러내린다. 코를 가져가면 클라이넬리시 특유의 밀랍과 짭조름한 해풍, 잘 익은 시트러스의 향이 차례로 인사한다. 한 모금 머금으면 18년이 다진 보리 단맛 위로 왁스 같은 질감과 가벼운 후추가 얹힌다. 57도의 힘을 천천히 삼키면 소금기 어린 단맛과 촛농 같은 풍미가 입 안을 오래 감싼다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
very punchy, starting ‘only’ on vanilla, mint and candle wax. Gets then waxier and waxier, quite resinous as well just like the other 13. Hints of apple peel, fresh walnuts... And then ultra-big notes of coriander and fresh parsley mixed with plain grain. Let’s see what happens with water: it all settles down a bit – I said a bit – and becomes more classic, albeit a little grassier than usual with Clynelish. Loads of apple peel plus a little coal smoke, soot... Also whiffs of ‘farmyard after the rain’
restaurant Palate
big, big notes of coconuts reminding me of some grain whiskies. Also vanillin, plain oak, sugar... There may have been new staves used here! Not much Clynelish character at this stage. With water: more of the same, even if it got a little more ‘Highlander’. Much more salt as well, as well as bitter oranges
timer Finish
long, a tad more of a classic Clynelish
