Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 돌리면 오래 익은 짙은 황금빛이 잔 안에서 윤기 있게 흔들린다. 코끝을 가져가면 37년의 세월이 빚은 밀랍과 트로피컬 과일, 마른 허브가 겹겹이 피어오른다. 한 모금 머금으면 54.2도의 둥근 질감 위로 망고와 꿀, 오래된 오크가 흐른다. 1972년 글렌그란트를 삼키면 농축된 과실과 향신료가 깊고 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
rich gold
air Nose
good, there’s no real death seat effect, this baby stands on its feet and does display the expected notes of sultanas, honey cake, rum baba and roasted pineapples. It’s all pretty lovely, especially the development on sweet herbal teas (some parts coming from the wood) such as honeysuckle and chamomile and then the marzipan and maple syrup. With water: some slightly sour wood spices are coming to the front but there’s also more mint – as usual, that’s true – and I like that
restaurant Palate
the oak’s a little louder this time, that is to say that the cinnamon strikes first, together with some heavy black tea and quite some nutmeg. The good news is that a beautiful combination of citrus fruits (both fresh and cooked) and mangos are still well alive in the background. With water: the fruits get revived. Swims very well on the palate
timer Finish
medium long, with good balance between the tea-ness and the honeyed fruits
