Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 응축된 짙은 호박빛이 잔 안에 깊게 머문다. 1970년 빈티지 글렌로시즈가 Duncan Taylor Tantalus 보틀링으로 43년의 긴 시간을 거쳐 41.5도의 절제된 도수에 담겼다. 향에서는 잘 익은 살구와 오래된 가죽, 옅은 시가 박스가 코를 사로잡는다. 입에서는 마른 무화과와 호두의 부드러운 단맛이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 약한 우드 향신료가 균형을 단단히 잡는다. 여운은 오래된 셰리의 잔향으로 길게 따라간다. 우드의 흔적과 본질적 캐릭터가 단단히 어우러진 보틀링이다. 오래된 우드의 잔향이 단단히 어우러진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
dusty and musty at first nosing, with all these oily smells again but also something much more farmy, sort of wild. Wet stones, fresh mushrooms, ham, caramel… Whiffs of peat, oxtail, gravy, roots… Quite playful and unusually complex (but who knows Deanston well? I certainly don’t). gets mintier after a moment, with also hints of lilies of the valley… A good surprise so far
restaurant Palate
rounder and probably more ‘academic’ than the 12 yo , even if there’s quite some peat again. Other than that we have a little muesli, lots of roasted nuts, herbal teas, chlorophyll, grass, olive oil. It’s not significantly better than the 12 yo in the middle, actually. More on bitter almonds
timer Finish
a little cardboardy now but not drying at all. Nice fresh almonds and olive oil again – is this one good for, or rather against our cholesterol? Now, it’s hard to give it more than 80 points .
