Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 응축된 짙은 호박빛이 잔 속에 깊게 어린다. 1969년에 증류해 41년을 묵힌 글렌로시는 향에서 말린 무화과와 꿀, 오래된 오크의 향이 우아하게 올라온다. 한 모금은 비단 같은 질감으로 흐르며 잘 익은 멜론과 건포도, 구운 견과가 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 44.2도라는 낮은 도수가 반세기에 가까운 숙성의 섬세함을 둥글게 감싼다. 여운은 묵은 과실과 마른 오크가 길고 우아하게 사그라든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this IS extravagantly fruity. An orchard in late summer… Ripe plums, apricots, a lot of honey, a little banana (flambéed)… Oh well, this is classic… And perfect. What's more, the oak is discreet… Development: complex, on old woods, spices, balms… Baklavas, orange blossom… Also a little humus, as almost always in these old whiskies when the oak's been civilised
restaurant Palate
one of these 'liqueur-malts', with an oakiness that's not absent (tea tannins) but that's all under control. Overripe apples, cinnamon, stewed rhubarb (with a lot of sugar), pink grapefruits, pomegranates… All very good, all eminently drinkable!
timer Finish
medium long, with more honey again. Absolutely not drying. Cooked apples and rhubarb in the aftertaste
