Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑은 호박빛이 잔 속에서 가볍게 일렁인다. 코를 가까이 하면 야생 꿀과 잘 익은 배의 향이 먼저 피어오르고 구운 보리의 고소함이 은은하게 받친다. 한 모금 머금으면 배럴이 빚어낸 바닐라와 과수원 과일이 둥글게 번지며 54.7도의 알코올이 따뜻한 기운으로 혀를 감싼다. 벤리악이 단일 캐스크로 내놓은 이 1994년 스페이사이드 몰트는 스무 해의 균형을 단정하게 보여준다. 여운은 꿀과 토피의 단맛으로 부드럽게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
a grassy, walnutty spirit with some earthy smoke. Nothing could go wrong and indeed, nothing goes wrong. Nutshell, some great old pu-erh from one of the best wild trees from the best mountain. With water: perfect. Leather and cigars. Right, some Partagas forgotten in the pocket of an old flying jacket
restaurant Palate
it’s extreme, and will probably not be to everyone’s liking – imagine someone that’s used to the ueberfruity Benriachs buying this without noticing the unusual pedigree. A very herbal smokiness, bags and bags of fresh walnuts, litres of walnut stain, and ‘sucking a cigar’. Really very extreme, with sides that remind me of the first Uigeadails. With water: some kind of super-aged Campari? The path was narrow, but it succeeded
timer Finish
long, very dry, cigary, leathery, gingery, smoky… And there’s some juniper too
