Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
어두운 마호가니빛이 잔 속에 깊이 잠긴다. 1990년 증류된 글렌드로낙은 페드로 히메네스 셰리 펀천에서 27년을 보낸 싱글 캐스크다. 향에서는 졸인 건자두와 다크초콜릿, 가죽이 빽빽하게 피어오른다. 입에서는 PX 특유의 진득한 단맛과 무화과, 흑설탕이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 52.1도의 힘이 단맛을 단단히 받치며 정향과 커피, 마른 과일의 여운이 깊게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
oil. Sunflower, grape pips, argan, whatever, this reeks of vegetal oil. And then, we have apple juice, grapefruits, pieces of mangos, something delicately floral (lilies), something rather ‘old Highlands’ (old motorbike, why not a Norton?), some carbon paper, drops of ink, new magazine (that would be Whisky Magazine France, of course!)… This nose reminds us that older malts used to be more complex than today’s offerings, however good those are. Facts
restaurant Palate
kills you. Another era, other perspectives, other aims, other goals (whaaaat?) Amazing complexity – and ‘compact fullness’ at the same time. Old Sauternes, some kind of banana liqueur long forgotten in Grandma’s cabinet-just-under-the-telly, many herbal teas, some loud and clear malted barley, a wee metallic touch that often appears in these old bottles by G&M (or Cadenhead)… and all that. Above all, it’s a classy distillate
timer Finish
not too long, of course, but never tired, never dull, and never flabby. Some smoke
