Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑은 호박빛이 잔 속에 깊게 잠겨 있다. 토마틴이 1965년 증류되어 오크 캐스크에서 43년을 머문 시간은 노쇠한 향을 정갈한 균형으로 응결시킨다. 향에서는 오래된 가구의 광택과 마른 풀, 옅은 꿀이 천천히 떠오르고 입에서는 52.1도의 알코올이 부드러운 오일감으로 흐르며 농축된 마른 과일과 향나무가 따라온다. 여운에는 노쇠한 캐스크의 정갈한 결이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ah, this is more like it at first nosing, starting right on many fresh fruits such as oranges and tangerines, white peaches, with discreet whiffs of iron (a bag of nails). Some cocoa powder as well. I guess this one will need water as well. With water: quite superb, really ‘antique’, complex. Old turpentine, old varnishes, musk, orange blossom water…
restaurant Palate
attacks on ‘old whisky’ notes, with more spices than in the ‘youngsters’, rather more complex… Apple pie, vanilla fudge, a little sweet mustard, old liqueurs, yellow chartreuse, quite some pepper… Maybe a tad decadent in a certain way but nervous and rather powerful. With water: really tastes like a very old bottling now, reminds me of some early Cadenhead ‘black dumpies’. Something slightly metallic. Not sure water worked very well here
timer Finish
rather long, more on cinnamon just like the 1976, but it isn’t really drying. Touches of cough syrup in the aftertaste, more liquorice and ginger as well
