Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드 엘긴 롱몬의 부드러운 보리밭과 차가운 샘물이 1967년 롱몬의 토대를 만들었다. 리필 셰리 버트 44년이 잔에 깊은 호박빛으로 머문다. 향은 잘 익은 자두와 흑설탕, 호두 페이스트, 옅은 가죽이 켜켜이 올라온다. 60년대 후반 롱몬의 깊은 곡물미가 받친다. 입에는 48.3%의 안정된 도수가 두꺼운 질감과 함께 흐르며 무화과와 다크 초콜릿, 정향이 발전한다. 여운은 셰리 캐스크의 그늘이 길게 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
coffee. Refill???
air Nose
the oak’s impact is so huge that one could think this is an old bourbon at first nosing, but of course things change over time. There’s more and more chocolate, millionaire shortbread, praline, walnut wine, dried mushrooms, more cocoa, a little tar, earth… Also some heavy honey such as our beloved chestnut honey that I often mention. I really love this nose but careful, it could suggest the palate will be overoaked and too drying…
restaurant Palate
not so, which is a miracle. There’s more oak in the nose, which is very unusual with old whiskies. Now, there’s a lot of chocolate and cocoa indeed, strong black tea Russian-style, mint drops and cough syrup, stewed strawberries, something slightly smoky and then even more chocolate. Ganache
timer Finish
long but, indeed, maybe a little too drying now. Swallowing a spoonful of Van Houten cocoa. Now, orange liqueurs and drops of Jaeger in the aftertaste really do the trick. Something medicinal
