Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 롱몬 특유의 잘 익은 과일과 꿀, 오래된 오크가 먼저 두드러진다. 1976 빈티지답게 팰럿은 망고와 살구, 가벼운 향신료가 층을 이루며 58.6도의 높은 도수가 긴 숙성의 매끄러움 위에 강한 힘을 더한다. 스페이사이드 명가로 꼽히는 롱몬의 올드 빈티지다운 풍부한 과일감과 깊이가 또렷하고, 25년 숙성에 캐스크 스트렝스의 무게가 더해진다. 아델피 보틀링의 피니시는 무르익은 과일과 오크가 길게 발전한다.
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)
