Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1968년 증류된 희귀한 빈티지로, 오랜 시간이 만든 미네랄과 오일리한 질감이 처음부터 끝까지 지배한다. 노즈에서는 파인애플과 패션프루트, 라임 같은 밝은 열대 과실이 앞서고, 마른 민트와 초크 같은 광물성이 뒤따른다. 43도에서도 팰럿은 놀랍도록 또렷해, 올리브 오일과 유칼립투스, 강한 시트러스가 층을 이룬다. 피니시는 길고 건조하며, 레몬 껍질과 허브의 광물성 여운이 남는 올드 스페이사이드다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
the palest of white wines - almost new make
air Nose
similarities and differences. This shared sense of fatness, greasiness, oiliness and mineral oils. But there's even more trebly fruit here, barely extract, pineapple, touches of passion fruit, lime and lemon. A feeling of a new make that is really, truly a barley eau de vie in the very precise sense of that imaginary category. I should add: stunning! Some gorgeous tertiary aromas of dried mint, lanolin, chalk and elderflower. With water: (First of all the viscimetry is immense, these old malts are so much about texture!) white fruits, minerals, chalk, limestone, brittle waxes and dried herbs like thyme and sage. Also some light impressions of animal furs
restaurant Palate
stunning purity and power! Grass, brake pads, olive oil, eucalyptus, dried herbs, dried mango chunks and exotic fruit teas. Also, quite frankly, big, flabby, oily new make vibes once again, but really in the greatest sense of that characteristic. Hugely mineral and also impressively citric too. With water: softer, bringing more of the oils and waxes to the fore, becoming more broad in its texture and engaging the whole mouth. Some sweeter and toastier cereal notes, lanolin again, more cooking oils and more greasy vibes
timer Finish
long, superbly mineral, drying, lemony, herbaceous and full of verbena, lime skin, putty, cough medicines and waxes
