Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 깃든 짙은 호박빛이 잔에 묵직하게 잠겨 있다. 1965년 글렌로시 40년이 빚어낸 향에서는 말린 살구와 묵은 가죽, 옅은 마롱 글라세의 기운이 천천히 풀려나간다. 한 모금 머금으면 토피와 비터 오렌지가 매끄럽게 미끄러지듯 흐르고 43도의 부드러운 알코올이 단정하게 정돈한다. 여운에는 묵은 오크 향신료와 마른 코코아가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
right, this oldie hasn’t got the 1969s’ ‘singularities’ and is probably more in line with other old Glenrothes, that is to say more on stewed fruits and honey (a whole beehive, actually) as well as on floral notes (dandelions, other ‘yellow’ flowers). It’s also got very nice notes of sweet curry and something such as Indian coconut sauce
restaurant Palate
it’s on the palate that it loses points in my view, not because it’s particularly tannic but because it’s simply a little less complex and ‘wide’ than the 1969s. Cinnamon cake and orange marmalade. A lot of cinnamon cake. Also nicely candied and resinous (oriental pastry)
timer Finish
medium long, still on cinnamon, with hints of lemon zests and ginger in the aftertaste
