Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
페드로 히메네스 셰리 캐스크에서 마무리한 숙성이 벤리네스 15년에 짙고 끈적한 단맛을 입혔다. 잔을 가까이 하면 건포도와 말린 무화과, 진한 당밀의 향이 풍성하게 번진다. 입에서는 52.9도의 도수가 PX 특유의 묵직한 단맛 위로 가죽과 다크초콜릿, 견과의 떫음을 밀어 올린다. 짙은 적갈색 너머로 달큰하고 쌉쌀한 여운이 길게 이어진다.
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…
