Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
호그스헤드에서 17년을 보낸 시간이 이 위스키의 풍부한 과일향을 키운다. 스페이사이드의 롱몬 1996은 잘 익은 복숭아와 멜론, 꿀의 향을 코에 가득 올린다. 57.3도의 높은 도수는 입안에서 꿀과 바닐라, 잘 익은 사과를 두껍게 흘려보낸다. 캐스크 스트렝스다운 응축된 단맛이 롱몬 특유의 우아함과 어우러진다. 짙은 황금빛 뒤로 이어지는 여운은 과일의 달콤함과 옅은 오크를 길게 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
coffee with red hues
air Nose
it's a dry one, with a lot of coffee indeed, touches of resinous wood (thuja?), quite some cough mixture, herbs and teas (wormwood and verbena), slightly heady whiffs of flowers (peonies, lilac) and then more cognac-like notes, chocolate, prunes... In short, classic and flawless. The herbal side lifts it a bit. With water: more orange zests, leather and green tobacco. No gunpowder (since you were about to ask, weren't you!)
restaurant Palate
thick, liqueury, oily and jammy. The good news is that these herbal and mentholated touches that are back make it quite fresh. Raspberry ganache, fruitcake, wee touches of mustard, lemon-Schweppes (I know, I know) and maybe a few Turkish delights. Moroccan spice mix for tagines ;-). With water: really excellent. Jams and high-end sangria
timer Finish
long, always very jammy. Seville oranges. Don't I detect a little rosemary in the aftertaste?
