Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑고 짙은 황금빛이 잔에 차분히 자리한다. 1995년 빈티지 벤리악이 2차 충전 버번 배럴에서 17년을 보낸 향은 잘 익은 시트러스와 부드러운 바닐라, 스페이사이드 특유의 섬세한 몰트 캐릭터, 그리고 가벼운 꿀과 옅은 풀잎의 청량함이 활기차게 어우러진다. 한 모금에 53.2도의 견고한 도수가 두툼하게 펼쳐지며 캐러멜과 마른 사과, 가벼운 시나몬, 옅은 견과류가 차례로 흐른다. 유태인 위스키 컴퍼니의 셀렉션이 다듬어낸 단정하고 길게 이어지는 여운.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
ouch, a peated one. I mean, I had planned to try some peaty Benriachs later, but let’s try to make the best of it… So, it’s a rather crystalline peat, rather narrow, not very ‘coastal’, nor medicinal, nor even earthy/farmy, it’s just an ultra-clean peat-smokiness. Actually, what I also get is rather menthol and camphor, but not antiseptic. Then a little ‘clean’ tar and some lemon, always a winning combo. The jury’s still out, but this smells good. With water: needs no water. Okay, I tried and found more almond skin
restaurant Palate
once again, an ultra-clean, hyper-chiselled combination of lemon juice and straight peat smoke. Then more vanilla and lemon cake, as well as tinned peaches, Ardmore-style. In the background, a little pitch and engine oil, but it’s no fattish peater
timer Finish
quite long and much more dry, even a little acrid. Ashes
