Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
더프타운의 야수로 불리는 모틀락은 2.81회라는 독특한 증류로 묵직한 고기 풍미를 빚는다. 셰리와 버번을 거친 12년산 위 위치는 잔에서 깊은 금빛을 낸다. 오래된 돌항아리와 찻주전자 같은 결에 녹차와 박하차, 세이지의 향이 어우러진다. 43.4도의 도수로 입안에서는 박하와 분필 같은 건조함에 초콜릿 감초와 치커리, 고기 같은 훈연이 또렷이 번진다. 마무리는 제법 길고 고기와 감초의 풍미가 오래 맴돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
it’s often the case when you taste from a stone flagon or decanter, you ‘think you find’ notes of stoneware or clay, but are they really there? Well, they are indeed, this is almost like nosing an old teapot into which someone would have also poured some banana juice or something. Some green tea for sure, mint tea, hints of sage, perhaps, papayas… Rather lovely, but let’s check the palate, it’s where thing may have gotten awfy awry, as they say in Tokyo. I mean, in Glasgow
restaurant Palate
not too sure. It got dry, very mentholated and chalky, with some rather bizarre notes of chocolate-flavoured liquorice, chicory, a little tar, a very meaty smokiness that’s quite ‘Mortlach’ indeed, some tobacco that you would have kind of sucked out of an untipped Senior Service (as far as I can remember)… Now there’s also some salty meat (beef jerky) that’s rather Mortlach as well. Intriguing
timer Finish
rather long, on some kind of meaty liquorice
