Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
엷은 황금빛이 잔에 맑게 어린다. 글렌그란트 25년의 향은 금속 광택제 같은 서늘함 뒤로 분홍빛 바나나와 백단향, 벌집의 단내가 층을 이루며 올라온다. 올로로소와 버번 배럴이 함께 빚은 입안에서는 유칼립투스와 씁쓸한 마지팬, 계피 케이크가 번지고 붉은 오렌지의 과즙이 산뜻하게 스친다. 46도의 절제된 도수 덕에 멘톨과 밀랍, 꿀이 얽힌 여운이 길게 이어지다 끝에서 살짝 마르며 닫힌다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
ah yes, those Glen Grants. You know, metal polish, green wood smoke, pink bananas, sandalwood, and all things from a hive. In a way, you could call this a phenolic old Cognac. Quite superb
restaurant Palate
starts slightly gritty, with some chlorophyll and green tea, but it takes off quite magnificently, with some eucalyptus, bitter marzipan, mint, and wee bits of cinnamon cake. Forgot to mention freshly squeezed blood oranges. And eucalyptus honey, the Corsican bees make some great eucalyptus honey when they are not on strike (S.! They’ll never let you in again!)
timer Finish
not the longest ever, but all this mentholy waxy/honeyed combo works very well. Only the aftertaste is a little disconcerting, perhaps too drying
