Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드의 온화한 풍토가 롱몬에 진한 꿀과 잘 익은 과일의 결을 오래 빚어왔다. 잔에는 깊은 골드빛이 어린다. 버번 호그스헤드에서 11년을 보낸 이 개별 캐스크는 코에 꿀과 넥타, 모과잼과 생강의 향을 힘 있게 올리고 잘 익은 살구가 뒤따른다. 58.1도의 단단한 질감 위로 입에는 잘 익은 살구와 크림, 후추의 매콤함이 또렷이 감돌며 옅은 쌉쌀함이 스민다. 여운은 전나무 꿀과 은은한 쌉쌀함, 구운 케이크의 뉘앙스로 길게 이어지며 롱몬 특유의 풍성함을 남긴다.
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)
