향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
노즈에서는 오래된 올로로소 셰리에서 온 건포도와 무화과, 가죽의 깊은 향이 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿에서는 37년을 숙성한 부나하벤답게 농축된 마른 과일 단맛과 호두, 은은한 향신료가 뚜렷이 이어지며 깊이가 인상적이다. 40.1도의 낮은 도수에도 풍미의 밀도가 견고하게 유지된다. 피니시는 마른 과일과 오크가 길게 남으며, 1966년 빈티지 셀틱 하트랜즈의 원숙한 깊이가 분명하다.

now we’ve just entered an antique shop! First we have big, bold notes of cellulose varnish, beeswax, eucalyptus and camphor plus the lady-dealer’s perfume (Chanel, preferably)… It’s really big whisky! Then these extravagant notes calm down and let some subtler ones go through, such as Seville oranges, Smyrna raisins and ripe bananas (just any), dried figs, dates, caramel liqueur, praline, apricot pie… And then we have the fab sherry itself – more like a very old Banyuls actually. It keeps developing on “coffee-schnapps”, bigaroon cherries, blackcurrant liqueur… Something of a big bold old Chambertin from a first class winemaker’s. A rather fabulous old sherried Glen Grant that will make us regret that so many of its siblings have been reduced to 40 or 43% in the past. Oh, did I mention the notes of well-hung game and balsamic vinegar?

get this: it’s even better on the palate than on the nose. Extremely firm, compact, without one single ounce of tannins - or ‘cardboardiness’ for that matter. Majestically candied, mentholated, caramelized and spicy (like a great fruitcake with cloves, chinese anise and cinnamon). Also all sorts of jams (all, really) and armagnac-soaked prunes… Plus what may well be peat, liquorice, and tar liqueur (I swear, I had some once! It was made in France until fifty years ago). What’s incredible is that it’s never too heavy, not to mention cloying

very long, very coherent, without one single goose note. (end of maltoporn). An extraordinary old Glen Grant. 94 points . (we’ll have some 1965s soon) MUSIC – Recommended listening: isn't it time for some Natalie Merchant again? Like, let's say Kind and generous.mp3 ... Natalie Merchant still rules supreme, please buy her music. March 7, 2007 TASTING - TWO 1966 BUNNAHABHAINS Bunnahabhain 37 yo 1966/2004 (40.1%, MMcD Celtic Heartlands, 276 bottles) From an oloroso sherry butt and with fantastic hyperbolical tasting notes by Master Jim ( “for sherry matured single malt lovers this is your Armageddon – total decadence – you will never see its likes again” ). Excellent!
