Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 천천히 기울이면 43년의 세월이 밴 짙은 호박빛이 잔을 가득 적신다. 코를 가져가면 잘 익은 망고와 꿀, 오래된 오크의 향이 그윽하게 올라온다. 한 모금 머금으면 리필 셰리 호그스헤드에서 오래 숙성된 롱몬의 농축된 과일 단맛이 혀 위에서 천천히 풀리고, 44.4도의 온화한 기운이 입을 부드럽게 채운다. 삼키면 열대 과일과 묵은 향신료의 끝맛이 깊게 머물며 노숙주 특유의 깊이를 길게 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold. No sherry monster
air Nose
ta-dah! Magnificent combination involving nectar and pollen, old Sauternes, tarte tatin, menthol cigarettes, honeydew, pipe tobacco, Vicks Vaporub, and just whiffs of 3 years old Comté cheese. Say dried wild flowers if you prefer. This is perfect
restaurant Palate
amazing, with an oak that decomposed into myriads of tiny oils and essences, and a fruity malt that’s still alive and kicking. In short, some kind of fruity cough syrup of the highest grade, with an oak that’s about to take over, but that hasn’t yet. A miraculous moment, they shouldn’t have bottled this the day after
timer Finish
medium, perhaps a tad drying, but these flowery herbal teas work so well… Very eucalyptussy (ahem…) Some kind of mysterious concoction made by monks high in the mountains
