Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 황금빛이 잔에 그윽하게 어린다. 스페이사이드의 글렌 그란트가 1966년 증류된 이 오래된 조비네티 보틀링은, 뜻밖의 이탄과 청량한 민트, 무화과와 밀랍, 은은한 가죽의 향을 겹겹이 피워 올린다. 40도의 도수가 무색하게 소금기와 쌉싸름한 허브, 박하의 풍미가 큼직하게 번진다. 페놀릭하고 스모키한 소금기의 여운이 길게 감돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
peat indeed! Not a raw and roaring peat of course, but I’m sure the whisky was quite peaty when it was distilled. Second good news: no weakness, no lightness, no wobbliness at 40% or (now) a little less. Splendid mint again, putty, metal polish, figs, kumquats, beeswax, leather, cough syrup (evolved peat?), a little antiseptic… Now, it does tend to become a little more cardboardy or ‘old-bookish’, but that also comes with more mint, verbena, aniseed, dill or even… straight absinth? Quite fabuloso
restaurant Palate
ha! This baby is tireless and it’s even big, imagine… There’s a saltiness, bitter herbs, crème de menthe… All quite superb. However the middle is a notch weaker, kind of jumbled up, and what comes out after that is more salt and bitter oils. I’d have never said this was Glen Grant
timer Finish
of medium length, very phenolic, dry, slightly metallic, smoky. Salty aftertaste. Also chlorophyll and agaves
