Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
엘긴 인근 스페이사이드가 길러낸 롱몬은 예로부터 풍만한 과실과 꿀로 이름난 증류소다. 버번 호그스헤드에서 11년을 보낸 이 개별 캐스크는 깊은 황금빛을 띠고, 향은 꿀과 마르멜로 젤리, 잘 익은 살구에 알싸한 생강이 활기차게 얽힌다. 57.9도의 입안은 크리미하게 열려 잘 익은 살구와 후추, 건포도의 단맛이 오크의 힘과 팽팽히 맞선다. 여운은 전나무 꿀과 은근한 쌉쌀함을 남기며 길고 단단하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
typically Longmorn, with these usual notes of honey, nectar and quince jelly. Quite punchy, getting then very gingery (with even hints of ginger tonic) and rather nicely winey (sweet white wine, traminer). Goes on with quite some apricot pie, very ripe peaches and melons, whiffs of coal smoke… Smooth but playful, with these bold gingery notes
restaurant Palate
very sweet, very creamy, starting on a very present oakiness and notes of ripe apricots. Lots of pepper as well, maybe even hints of chilli. Kind of a sourness from the cask but it’s ok. Goes on with roasted fruits (mostly raisins) and a little resin or chlorophyll chewing gum, un-sugared tea. Faint bitterness. Probably less fruity than the nose
timer Finish
rather long, with that ‘nice’ bitterness and quite some fir honey as well as a little burnt cake. Not one of the most stunning Longmorns I think but still an excellent malt. The nose was much nicer than the palate. 86 points. Longmorn 1972 (58.3%, Jack Wieber’s Prenzlow Collection, 120 bottles)
