Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈는 건포도와 프룬, 마지팬을 채운 대추야자로 시작해 밀도가 상당히 높다. 코냑과 럼을 연상시키는 오래된 증류주 뉘앙스가 이어지고 왁스와 오일, 희귀한 허브가 뒤를 받친다. 58.9도의 팰럿은 크고 풍성하면서도 우아함을 잃지 않으며 향의 구성이 거의 그대로 재현된다. 피니시는 정향과 민트로 길게 이어지다 설탕에 절인 생강으로 닫힌다. 마호가니빛 외관에 걸맞은 구조감이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
mahogany
air Nose
yes it does remind me of the no-less famous 12 yo for Samaroli. This is simply amazing, with all dimensions involved. So a huge complexity, even at this very high strength, with first, all kinds of raisins plus prunes and marzipan-filled dates, then a wee blend of other stunning old spirits (mainly cognac and rum), then all waxes and oils of the creation as well as the rarest aromatic herbs. You may forget about ‘rarest’. What an experience… With water: not the best use of water ever, the whisky doesn’t change much. Well, it couldn’t have gotten any better anyway…
restaurant Palate
where to start? This is big, this is huge, this is as rich and yet elegant and even kind of refreshing as the grandest Montrachet (Serge, we’re getting tired of your wine quotes). The only tiny-wee-ish flaw is an infinitesimal soapiness. Otherwise we have more or less the same aromas as in the nose. With water: please immediately call the anti-maltoporn brigade. And water killed that faint soapiness, unsurprisingly
timer Finish
long and now rather spicier. Cloves and mint first, which keeps it all fresh, then crystallised ginger and a little paprika
