향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 돌려 색부터 확인하면 리필 셰리 버트답게 화이트 와인에 가까운 옅은 빛이 돈다. 코를 대면 사탕수수 설탕과 건포도가 가볍게 떠오르고 그 아래로 풀줄기 같은 서늘함이 깔린다. 53.9도의 한 모금을 굴리면 단맛이 먼저 오고 곧 박하와 마른 허브가 혀 가운데를 지난다. 삼킨 뒤에는 시럽 같은 여운과 옅은 쓴맛이 함께 남는다. 셰리를 거의 내주지 않은 캐스크가 1990년 맥캘란 원액을 그대로 드러낸다.

rum! Very interesting to taste it after two ‘natural’ young Glenrothes, because you can really get what the rum’s influence is. Cane sugar (no kiddin’!), something faintly waxy, sultanas but also molasses, before it gets very vegetal, with a little peppermint, fern, raw alcohol, mustard and curry… Not too easy to enjoy, I’d say

very sweet and rummy again, almost sugarish, on maple syrup, getting rather rubbery again, vegetal, bitter (artichokes, infused tealeaves), more on tequila than on rum. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a miss but it’s just not the kind of profile I like, it’s too far away from a malt. Right, let’s not bash it too much then: 75 points . MUSIC – Very highly recommended listening - Cool, very cool... It's Brazil's Romulo Froes singing a very delicate and intimate Sem nada pra dizer.mp3 . Aahhh... Please buy Romulo's music and support all 'authentic' artists from Brazil. CRAZY WHISKY NEWS: STOLEN WHISKY ON ISLAY - CULPRIT FOUND! It all started when the people at Ardbeg Distillery had wanted to select a new cask for the 2005 Belgian single cask limited bottling. A sherry butt filled in 1972 was found to be completely empty! There was a hole in the bottom of the cask and kinds of 'crumbs' of oak were lying on the floor. A bunch of malt maniacs and Plowedsters who had just visited the warehouse had been first suspected and Scotland Yard was on the case... It's only when, six months later, Dutch whisky enthusiast Ruud van Pitloover finally developed the 12,000+ photographs he had taken during the 2005 Islay Whisky Festival that an odd detail was uncovered on one of the pictures (see above). Ruud told Whiskyfun: "Ja, I had taken a few photographs of the sheep that's usually strolling on the hills behind the distillery and it's only when looking closer at one of them that I could spot something rather incongruous..." Quite a relief for all the maniacs indeed! December 20, 2005 MUSIC – Recommended listening: are you pro- Kinnie Starr or anti-Kinnie Starr? Well, I'm all for her, despite the heavy 'electronics'. And what a voice! So, please, listen to Alright.mp3 and make up your own mind - and then rush out and buy her music.
