‘Unintuitive Harmony of Subtle and Light Scents’
‘Sophisticated Flavors for Real Adults’
What is implied by the flavor for real adults is that not only does it have complex and subtle savor, contain twisted appealing, but also requires people to contemplate the composition of it for a thorough understanding. A maker of it should create the flavor which doesn’t come across as unpleasant, and consumers ought to appreciate the intention of the maker which is beyond their comfort zone. Thus, flavor for real adults is of high level, can be difficult and uncomfortable, but also meaningful and valuable.
The Glenlivet 18 has a flavor for real adults. Briefly, aromas of subtle flower, sherry, grass, sugar, and cigarette smoke are woven into the whole. Each reveals its presence slightly each time one smells it. The taste starts from saltiness followed by underlying sweetness and sherry, and ends with oak scents and dryness at the finish.
The intensity of overall scent is low to modest. There are smells of light flower, subtle grass, sugar, and sherry, tangled like a skein. At the end of the smell is a hint of burnt smoke. Among its scents, flower is accentuated the most, but not powerful or strong. The balance of light scents comes across as pleasant.
In mouth, salty taste comes first. It is followed by underlying sweetness of sugar and sherry. The sweetness is clearly there but it doesn’t stand out. Sherry flavor keeps its existence from the very beginning but it stands out at the finish. What’s noteworthy is dryness of smoke, and oak scent at the finish. Spiciness lingers in the mouth shortly and then fades away.
The Glenlivet 18 is for those who like complex and unusual combination of flavors. Flavors of toffee, orange, and abundant fruits in tasting notes are hard to notice. It is certain that the whisky is not for those who like simple and strong flavors. From the perspective of new experience and harmony, the whisky can be very appealing.
