Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 버번 배럴이 30년 동안 키워낸 파인애플과 망고 같은 열대 과일 향이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 벤리악 1979 빈티지 특유의 밀랍과 꿀이 뒤이어 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 47.9도에서 잘 익은 복숭아와 바닐라, 가벼운 시트러스가 또렷하게 발전한다. 피니시는 오크의 은은한 향신료와 과일 단맛으로 길게 이어지며 균형이 단단하다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
this could have been very different from the old Samaroli but it isn’t. It’s probably a little less complex but we do get the same huge notes of coffee, smoke, coal and dried herbs. On the other hand, this is not meaty at all. Huge notes of roasted grains as well. Roasted chestnuts. Keeps evolving, getting closer to stout and malt extract but always with a huge smokiness
restaurant Palate
less ‘pleasantly sharp and dry’ now, and maybe a tad too ‘kirschy’ (raw fruit distillate). Oh well, let’s see what gives with water: right, it’s a excellent whisky but its much less ‘different’ that on the nose, contrarily to what happened with the 1966. White fruits, heather honey, a little mint and hints of pear spirit
timer Finish
long, getting a tad more resinous and smoky now
