향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
검붉은 마호가니빛이 잔에 깊이 비친다. 글렌리벳의 1940년 빈티지가 퍼스트필 셰리 버트에서 무려 70년을 머문 뒤 고든 앤 맥페일의 제너레이션스로 45.9도에 담긴 역사적 한 병이다. 향에서는 묵은 가죽과 다크 초콜릿, 흙내음이 깊게 머문다. 입에서는 흑설탕과 마른 무화과, 향신료가 두꺼운 질감으로 흐른다. 70년의 시간이 여운에 묵은 베리로 길게 이어진다.

as I wrote, a long pause was needed after the rum because it may have simply overwhelmed this old glory. The malt is immediately more complex, smoother and fresher despite the older age, although it’s got something of an old rum (aaargh!), especially ripe bananas and oranges. Other than that, it’s beautifully earthy, with some humus, wild mushrooms, roots, then touches of eucalyptus and a little smoke, ripe melon, sultanas and fig jam (not a very sugary one, rather the kind we eat with foie gras, actually closer to some kind of chutney). Also After Eights (when you open a new pack), mint and chocolate plus just tiny hints of paper/cardboard. Oh, and also touches of iron, old tools, wine cellar… As I said, its all very complex and a true ‘movie-malt’ that never stops changing while remaining ‘focussed’, if you se what I mean

the wood is more obvious but it’s of high quality, with notes of high-end cinnamon mingled with blood oranges and mango jam. Then crystallised fruits, honeycomb, cassata, a little liquorice, tobacco, touches of cloves, drops of Campari, maybe a little mint… And even a little smoke again
timer 피니시
probably not extremely long but once again, the oak does not dominate the distillate, which is a miracle, esp. since it was a first fill cask
