Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 로시스의 글렌 그란트는 키 큰 정류기와 정화기로 가볍고 맑은 술을 빚어 온 증류소다. 1930년대에 병입된 이 고전 보틀은 70도라는 옛 도수 표기를 그대로 지녔다. 잔에는 옅은 금빛이 비치고 향은 보리 단맛과 사과, 마른 풀이 소박하게 솟는다. 강한 도수 너머로 입은 곡물과 꿀, 후추가 날카롭게 드러난다. 여운에는 마른 곡물과 오크가 담담하게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
a long way from the current 10 and 15, quite amazingly so really. This is a pure mash up of mineral, sunflower and lamp oils. Also suggestions of plaster, wet chalk, limestone and white flowers. Also an almost crystalline barley note running underneath. Utterly impeccable distillate. It has that highly austere, petrolic quality you often find in Cadenhead or SMWS bottlings from the early 90s, only this has something that many of those ones miss, which is class and depth of body to the distillate with these paraffin and waxy aspects. Probably due to old methods of production. With water: linens, camphor, ink and oily toolboxes. Also putty and more white flowers along with vase water and a greener note of crushed flower stems
restaurant Palate
pure and vividly on paraffin, lamp oil, hessians, clay, ointments and warm peppery notes of watercress and mustard powder. Powerful without a trace of peat, and once again the word that comes to mind is class. A true barley eau de vie. With water: waxier in texture and flavour, but still bone dry, pure and impeccably peppery. A mustardy vibe that nods towards old Banffs
timer Finish
long, warming, peppery and with more paraffin, waxes, hessian and ink
