Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔에 잠긴 빛은 짙은 호박빛이다. 클라이넬리시가 1972년에 증류돼 엑스셰리 호그스헤드에서 38년을 보낸 뒤 더 위스키 에이전시의 프라이빗 스톡으로 45.8도에 병입된 보틀이다. 향에는 클라이넬리시 특유의 왁스 노트와 잘 익은 복숭아, 옅은 셰리 단맛이 서로 얽혀 떠오른다. 입에서는 왁스와 시트러스 껍질이 미끄러지듯 흐르고 알코올은 부드럽게 잠긴다. 여운에는 왁스와 꿀의 잔향이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
coppery gold
air Nose
tobacco leaf, gunmetal and shoe polish. You feel the sherry but it’s superbly and rather thrillingly elegant and well-integrated. Wee touches of miso, quince jelly. Some mustard powder, soft beeswax and heather honey. Crystallised exotic fruits, warming spice notes and an increasingly plush leathery note. Totally superb!
restaurant Palate
Gloriously earthy, gamey and full of this nervous saltiness. Salted walnuts, balsamic, camphor and bitter herbal cough medicines. Some kind of super old green chartreuse mixed with natural tar and pine resins. Majestic texture as well. Full, polished, waxy, earthy, menthol and profoundly complex. Herbs, fruits, medicines, waxes, spices… everything glimmering and sloshing about in the darkness
timer Finish
long and leathery again. More meaty stock notes, salinity, preserved dark fruits, toasted walnuts and spiced damsons
