Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 살짝 흔들면 글렌알라키가 빚은 피트 몰트 메이클 토어 5년의 금빛이 잔 안에서 출렁인다. 코를 가져가면 베이컨과 새 고무, 사우나 오일 같은 현대적이고 인더스트리얼한 향이 거침없이 올라온다. 48도의 술을 한 모금 머금으면 친카핀 버진 오크가 더한 그을린 레몬 타르트의 향과 피트가 어우러지며 장난스러운 개성이 살아난다. 삼키고 나면 레몬과 향신료의 매콤한 끝맛이 또렷하게 따라온다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
very modern, very cool, with lots of bacon, sauna oils, and new rubber. It's almost like visiting a car dealership with all these new tyres and all the spent motor oil gathered in the trays. There are many Speyside distilleries that have recently tried peat, including some previously managed by Billy Waller (Benriach), and most have achieved slightly average results in my opinion. That is not the case here, I really like this very... automotive profile. Cars and bacon, nice combination!
restaurant Palate
in keeping with this, but with new flavours like burnt lemon tart and worn-out dragster tyre. It's really quite fun; it's far from the first 'Chinkapin oak' from Glenmorangie, do you remember it? A totally non-coastal peat, it's a welcome variation for us
timer Finish
long and more lemony and spicy, that's the American barrel responding to the peat
