Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 몰트락의 플로라 앤 파우나 16년으로, 43도로 병입한 클래식 보틀링이다. 노즈에서는 꽃과 꽃가루, 밀크초콜릿과 잘 익은 배가 가장 먼저 두드러지고 약간의 왁스 먹인 캔버스 뉘앙스가 더해진다. 팰럿은 처음엔 달다가 점차 매콤해지며 백단향과 말린 민트, 몰트락 특유의 고기 같은 풍미가 발전한다. 피니시는 따뜻하고 매콤하며 말린 살구와 캐러멜라이즈드 오트밀의 잔향이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
wonderfully full of flowers, pollens, honeys, milk chocolate, fruit teas and things like ripe pears, yellow plums and a wee touch of waxed canvass. I have to say, I find it extremely impressive and I get why others have raved rather highly about this expression when it came out
restaurant Palate
sweet at first then becoming more peppery, spicy and with these drying herbal and heathery touches. Sap, sandalwood, fur, dried mint, dried apple rings and some hints of melon and bitter lemon. Gets increasingly drier, oilier and slightly dusty - which I find charmingly old school in some ways. There’s also this Mortlach meatiness arising over time which is great
timer Finish
good length, rather warming and spicy with notes of hot toddy, dried apricot and caramelised oatmeal
