Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 롱몬 인근에서 자란 글렌 그란트는 맑고 왁스질 감도는 과실 캐릭터로 이름이 높다. 오래된 이 다이렉터스 리저브는 금빛 아래 순수한 벌집과 꿀, 아카시아와 약초 같은 향이 우아하게 피어오른다. 1950년대 원액을 20년 숙성한 이 위스키는 입에서 마른 허브 피트와 설탕에 절인 이국적 과일이 왁스질 질감으로 얽히며 이례적인 75도가 묵직한 밀도를 싣는다. 여운은 수지 향과 꿀, 멘톨과 마른 꽃의 향으로 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
the densest, most superb honey aroma. Pure honeycomb, coconut, acacia, wormwood, ancient yellow Chartreuse and resinous fir and hardwoods. What I adore about these old official/G&M Glen Grants from this era is how they deliver what is in some ways a rather singular profile, but that profile is just utter beauty and poetry in a glass. You could also mention waxes, medical tinctures, citrons and crystallised exotic fruits
restaurant Palate
perfection! Glorious soft threads of dry, herbal peat, interwoven with any number of preserved and crystallised green and exotic fruits you care to mention. Also some marrow, mechanical oils and wee tarry aspects adding body and power. There's also metallic notes, bouillon stock and a more pure and punchy waxiness coming through now
timer Finish
long, wonderfully resinous, honeyed, herbal, waxy and becoming mentholated and showing wee notes of dried flowers and yellow fruits
