Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
1972년 롱몬이 16년의 시간을 견딘 결과가 깊은 호박빛으로 잔에 맑게 비친다. 향에서는 잘 익은 살구와 광나무 꿀, 마지팬이 또렷이 드러나고 옅은 왁스가 뒤따른다. 입에서는 마멀레이드의 새콤한 단맛과 다크 캐러멜, 흰 후추가 미끄러지듯 흐른다. 58.8도의 단단한 알코올이 흩어지지 않고 균형을 받쳐주며 고든 앤 맥페일 보틀링답게 정갈한 여운이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full amber
air Nose
the digestif will win it, no doubt about that and that was to be expected. It's one of these stunning old-style Longmorns that were fatter and oilier than more modern offerings. Stunning nose, full of beeswax, old turpentine, apricot jam, earthy pu-erh tea, pipe tobacco, metal polish, date wine, chocolate liqueur, mushrooms, old balsamic vinegar... All this is really stunning. With water: even more so. A box of puros from Cuba's best factory. And I'm very fond of these touches of parsley in the background
restaurant Palate
this is liquid honey blended with limejuice and a whole bottle of prohibition-time cough syrup (I imagine). Totally exceptional whisky, I especially adore these sherry monsters that show great balance because of a zesty/tarty side. With water: well, maybe it's time to call the anti-maltoporn brigade. Please
timer Finish
long, more on orange liqueurs and old Sauternes from a great year. There's something slightly muscaty as well, and some mint, and some liquorice
