Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
버번 호그스헤드에서 15년을 보낸 이 벤린스는 A.D. 래트레이가 골라낸 개별 캐스크다. 통의 이력에 비해 놀랍도록 짙은 향이 열려 호두주와 마른 흙, 다크 토피와 파이프 담배를 드러낸다. 53.3도의 입안은 브랜디 데 헤레스와 데메라라 럼을 넘나들며 초콜릿과 커피, 말라가 건포도의 맛을 진하게 밀어 올린다. 극단적일 만큼 강렬한 개성이 인상적이고, 커피빛 잔 아래로 초콜릿 같은 여운이 매우 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
coffee
air Nose
walnut wine, rubber, new tyres, earth, dried porcinis, truffles, dark toffee. There, you get the idea. With water: butterscotch, roasted brazil nuts, and pipe tobacco
restaurant Palate
we’re between brandy de Jerez, Demerara rum, and malt whisky. And it’s good, just pretty extreme. In a way, it’s some kind of much-much-much improved Loch Dhu. Yep. With water: chocolate and coffee up. Reminiscent of Macallan’s first Gran Reservas, but perhaps a little better. Malaga raisins, chocolate liqueur and Kahlua. I hope you get the picture!
timer Finish
very long, and extremely chocolaty. We’re actually rather closer to Macallan’s older Macallan 10 yo 'Cask Strength'. By the way, did you see their impressive new distillery? Hope they’ll manage to make traditional Mac again up there! Without paxarette, naturally…
