Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
스페이사이드에서 좀처럼 보기 드문 피트 위스키를 글렌알라키가 메이클 토어라는 이름으로 선보인다. 퍼스트필 버번과 라이, 버진 오크에서 5년을 보낸 이 오리지널은 호박빛을 잔에 담는다. 50도의 향은 고무와 아세톤, 기계유의 거친 첫인상 뒤로 삼나무와 우드 글루가 따라온다. 한 모금 넣으면 기름진 질감 위로 설탕에 절인 시트러스와 나무 연기, 훈제 생선의 풍미가 강하게 번진다. 여운은 솔 연기처럼 압도적으로 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
amber. I'm not quite sure why this one would be much darker than its less peaty twin, but let's move on…
air Nose
well, someone bought a new pair of rubber boots and didn't find anything better to do than to throw them into the stove, and then add some acetone and motor oil. Should we call the police right away or should we wait a bit? Maybe these notes of cedar wood, wood glue, teak oil, and Barbour grease will save the day…
restaurant Palate
it's thick like oil but it also has some extremely enticing notes of candied citrus. In fact, there is a 'lab-made' feel to it, but honestly, we don't care, it works. A lot of wood smoke, beyond the peat, in the style of some deep-smoked fish from the far north. Pine smoke leading the way!
timer Finish
very long, somewhat overpowering to be honest, I think we'll forget about the Strasbourg goose foie gras and the fine de claire oysters that we had planned for a starter after this resounding aperitif. We'll also give up on the Meursault, thank you Glenallachie, this is going to cost you!
