Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 1970년 증류된 35년 숙성 글렌 그란트답게 잘 익은 과일과 꿀, 오래된 오크의 향이 천천히 드러난다. 41.5도의 둥근 질감 위로 살구와 멜론, 밀랍의 뉘앙스가 차례로 발전한다. 팰럿은 부드러운 몰트 단맛과 시트러스, 견과의 고소함이 단정한 균형을 이룬다. 피니시는 길고 부드럽게 마른 과일과 오크 스파이스의 잔향을 또렷이 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
this one isn’t really comparable, it’s much older and more sherried hence fruitful. Less peaty and medicinal at first nosing but really expressive, superb, with stunning notes of cooked fruits topped with caramel and spices. Figs, passion fruits, papayas (something that reminds me of some Bowmores from the 60’s). The peat is well there, in the background, giving the whole a perfect structure. Keeps developing on bold notes of Havana cigars (a whole box), game, civet, shoe polish… gets slightly sweetish after that but it’s not a problem. Fab
restaurant Palate
not really bold now, kind of slow to go into action and maybe a little tea-ish, sour and bittersweet. What a dreadful shame, the nose was so great! Rather nice peat but the sherry cask seems to have brought lots of dryness and probably a little rubber, even if the middle is quite weakish. Rather short, drying and sourish finish, with just lots of salt and quite some pepper as a final signature at the retro-olfaction. But what a fabulous nose it had! 85 points. MUSIC – JAZZ - Recommended listening - She was one of the best and in 1936, Mildred Bailey was singing William Best's hit (I Love You) For sentimental reasons.mp3 . Yes, before Nat King Cole. WARNING – Maybe you could read on a crazy blog by some crazy Belgians crazy news about me being a new member of a certain ‘ society ’ (ha!) Yes, that’s all crazy and, of course, wrong and I’ll post pictures that’ll explain why it couldn’t have been possible. Sorry, that was a bit elliptic (and crazy) but please stay tuned and you’ll get the whole picture in one day or two.
