Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
동부 하일랜드의 비옥한 풍토에서 자란 글렌드로낙은 짙은 셰리 숙성으로 명성을 쌓았다. 1995년 증류해 페드로 히메네스 셰리 캐스크에서 18년을 보낸 이 빈티지 보틀링은 잔에 검붉은 마호가니빛을 머금는다. 향에는 말린 자두와 흑설탕, 가죽이 빽빽이 쌓이고, 입에서는 54.3도의 힘이 진한 건과일 단맛과 모카로 입천장을 덮는다. 여운은 다크초콜릿과 호두를 깊게 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
… and yet a very similar profile, I wouldn’t say that the PX brought much more roundness and sweetness – so far. So a lot of dried fruits again, Corinthian raisins, rich tobacco, chocolate, bacon, mint… and quite some fresh walnuts as well (skins). With water: more leather, game and tobacco (cigar humidor) as well as whiffs of black truffles
restaurant Palate
now it’s sweeter, and quite unusual too. Oh, and rather brilliant. Starts quite nervous, on pink grapefruits and ginger tonic, before some beautiful notes of tangerine liqueur and gingerbread join in the dancing. Absolutely lovely. With water: more bitter oranges and more ‘greenness’ (herbs, chlorophyll) that go very well with this profile
timer Finish
long, creamy, not cloying at all. Great balance. More black raisins, cocoa powder and cardamom in the aftertaste
