향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
코끝에 가져가면 30년을 호그스헤드에서 보낸 콘발모어의 향이 잘 익은 사과와 꿀로 부드럽게 두드러진다. 폐쇄 증류소의 1975년 빈티지답게 노즈는 밀랍과 마른 풀, 옅은 시트러스가 차근히 얽힌다. 40도의 부드러운 입에서는 보리 시리얼과 바닐라가 매끄럽게 발전하고 오크의 은은한 향신료가 뒤따른다. 중반으로 갈수록 꿀의 단맛과 과수원 과일의 결이 또렷하게 살아난다. 균형이 단단한 가운데 산미가 정돈되며, 피니시는 꿀과 마른 오크가 길게 이어진다.

air 아로마 (코)
punchy and powerful, starting very malty and very sweet, on cooked strawberries, cake and buttered caramel, with whiffs of cinnamon and a nice, sweet and sour woodiness. Gets then more herbal, with notes of yellow Chartreuse, Darjeeling tea, American coffee and cocoa. There’s something ‘ascetic’ in it, for it’s rather close to nature (yeah, whatever that means). A malt that’s isn’t made-up, it appears, probably for aficionados, like many of these new limited bottlings by Diageo that appear to be rather austere (but you might know I like that) and without compromise
restaurant 맛 (팔레트)
a powerful attack, extremely sweet and quite woody, starting on fruit liqueurs (such as pineapple), Chinese rice spirit, with a ‘sweet-and-sourness’ that gives it something funnily Extreme-Oriental indeed. Rather tannic, getting a little drying after a while… Right, let’s try it with water now… (and while the nose gets even fruitier and quite farmy as well…) Ah, yes, now it’s much more civilized, harmoniously fruity (apricots, peaches and melons, even tropical fruits such as mangos and passion fruits), with notes of freshly crushed mint leaves. The finish is rather long, balanced and enjoyable with water, always very fruity, with a little icing sugar. A malt that needs water to get tamed – or it’ll take no prisoners! Anyway, it’s the kind of no-peat-no-sherry-no-prisoners malt I like – 89 points . Convalmore 1981 (40%, Strathblair Collection, 2004) A curious fairly new series from Switzerland, showing no bottling year and no cask number although they are single casks, most of them being bottled at 40%.
