fresh, staring flinty, with whiffs of aniseed and dill. Then more fresh apples and gooseberries. Obviously young but the spirit is clean and enjoyable. Goes on with more liquorice and leaves as well as a little vanilla and liquorice allsorts rather dry and fino-ish, with notes of leaves, teabag and a little shoe polish. A little smoke as well, burning leaves and hay, walnuts, toasted oak. Pleasant profile. Develops on vin jaune, flor… not far from the 2000, only with a little more vanilla and oak. Very, very ‘balanced’. Faint dustiness, hints of iron and old books, flour very noseable considering the high strength, creamy and rather chocolaty. Café latte, vanilla crème, touches of ginger and coconut in the background. Lactones. The cask must have been rather active, good, ‘creamy’ oak extraction this one is much more on many herbs, fresh parsley, lovage, dill, then liquorice and roots, hay, oak, green tea (and pu-erh as well)… Quite superb I must say. Unlit Havana cigar and toffee wow! This is very complex, superbly mushroomy and herbal, with also whiffs of moss, a little camphor, bitter oranges, tamarind juice, old wooden furniture, honeycomb… Then same hints of parsley as in the BBR this one is a tad more closed, dry and dusty at first nosing but all that improves with a little breathing, on more plum jam, oranges, tangerines and unexpected hints of passion fruits. Not spectacular but fresh and clean this one is unexpectedly close to the 1971, they’re almost the same whiskies (but it’s true that their ages are similar). Maybe a little more pine resin and putty in this one, kumquats… Same hints of passion fruits as in the 1971
restaurant 맛 (팔레트)
sweet and easy, very fruity, a fruit salad coated with vanilla and just touches of ginger. Tinned peaches very good, with even more fino notes, yellow wine, walnuts, tea… Too bad the body’s a tad thinnish easy, creamy, fruity and sweetly spicy. A little coffee, dark chocolate, tea, some lemon in the background rich, thick, creamy, vanilled and fruity. Banana liqueur with grated ginger and pepper, crystallised pineapple… High concentration in this one almost as rich and coating as the 1984 now, with a very similar profile but more pepper and strong black tea. Peppered Malibu? Faint smokiness excellently fruity, lively, extremely quaffable. Orange liqueur, apple juice, vanilla fudge, multi-vitamin juice and zests plus just a little ginger very fruity for a start, with exactly the same notes of multi-vitamin juice as in the 1971 but more liquorice and just hints of litchis and rosewater (or Turkish delights). Quite some oak as well but it’s all perfectly bearable and rather ‘polished’ oily mouth feel, delicate profile, fruity, resinous, herbal, a tad Chartreuse-like, with also a lot of mint (Get). Quite some liquorice too, many spices, cinchona, bitter almonds, amarettis, lvender sweets… Excellent

medium long, with just traces of oak and pepper in the aftertaste shortish but the profile is very interestingly dry and, yes, fino-like medium long, with that dry dustiness again. Pepper in the aftertaste very long, on the same notes. White pepper in the aftertaste long, spicy, slightly tannic medium long, with more herbs and tea now medium long, more on fruit jam and tea. Too bad there’s something burnt in the aftertaste very long this time, with even more mint
