향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 손안에서 천천히 굴리면 오래 숙성한 금빛이 잔 안에서 깊이 자리 잡는다. 코를 가져가면 놀랍도록 소테른을 닮은 잘 익은 살구와 과당의 단내가 먼저 올라오고 감귤과 아이싱 슈거, 옅은 오크가 뒤를 잇는다. 한 모금 머금으면 43.1도의 부드러운 질감 위로 후추와 바클라바, 살구잼과 녹차가 층층이 번지며 잘 다스려진 단맛이 혀를 감싼다. 삼키고 나면 36년 글렌피딕다운 진하고 긴 여운이 은은한 훈연과 바닐라, 옅은 수지 향을 남기며 오래된 몰트의 깊이를 드러낸다.

but this smells exactly like Sauternes at first nosing! Amazing... I mean, the spirit is almost absent here, it’s the wine that does all the talking, and as Sauternes isn’t ‘a winey wine’ (come on, Serge!), the result is rather pleasant. A lot of fructose, ripe apricots, icing sugar, hints of kiwis, tangerines... How funny. Gets a little more ‘whisky’ after a while, that is, with hints of oak, a faint maltiness and... And? Hugely demonstrative in any case
restaurant 맛 (팔레트)
ho-ho, this works better I think. More multidimensional than the sherry (and certainly than the Port), with a better oakiness, spices and grass at the attack, and then a huge sweetness that’s better controlled I think. Pepper, baklavas, apricot jam and green tea. Works very well, and there’s even bits of the original distillate that shine through (imagine something delicately smoky and vanilled whispering in the background)

long and thick, on the same big flavours, with also hints of resin. Again, a very well crafted malt from the New World of Whisky. Certainly not a grand cru (how would we know anyway with this heavy treatment?) but the end result is truly palatable methinks, albeit a bit panzerish (I think you made your point here, Serge). 86 points (just two points below the rather excellent old 21yo Sauternes finish). AND YET A LITTLE SHOPPING - Our friends at Lombard's sell a magnificent set of Jewels of Scotland Hand Made Miniatures. They say it much better than I would: 'These stunning miniatures are hand crafted in traditional and modern design by master glassmakers... Decorative and sculptured glass is created by the ancient skills of lampwork and freeblown – painstaking precision using only sharpness of eye ensures no miniature is identical. Its creator individually signs each miniature, which is presented in a dark blue suede gift box with a certificate of authenticity. Each miniature holds a 25 Year Old Single Malt from the Springbank distillery - bottled under the sole responsibility of Lombard Scotch Whisky. This famous Campbeltown malt is noted for its rich malty aroma and salty tang – characteristics which always betray its geographical position on the coast of the Mull of Kintyre. 10 miniatures to a set - highly desirable for all collectors.' Well, I'd say as long as they don't put their excellent Clynelishes into these things, I'm fine. MUSIC – JAZZ - Recommended listening: in the true Bill Evans spirit, Dick Hindman plays Lost in a dream.mp3 with Paul Warburton and Colin Bailey. That was on their excellent CD ‘Secret Garden’.

Is there some external arbiter of value who can, willy nilly, put a price on any given item or commodity? Or is it s
