Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 맑은 금빛이 잔 안을 부드럽게 돈다. 코끝에 가져가면 신선한 몰트향과 체리 씨, 아몬드가 먼저 오르고 가죽과 흙의 뉘앙스가 은은하게 뒤따른다. 아메리칸 오크와 스페인 셰리에서 숙성한 40도의 이 아벨라워를 한 모금 머금으면 몰트의 단맛 뒤로 건포도와 프룬, 초콜릿을 품은 프룻케이크가 밀려든다. 삼키면 정향과 계피, 진저브레드의 마른 향신료가 입안에 번지며 마무리를 짓는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
fresh, malty, and kirschy at first nosing, with an almondy side, some notes of fruit stones (yeah, kirsch and plum eau-de-vie), then rather more leather and earth. I find it rather complex and, again, fresh. Whiffs of sour dough, fresh bread… That should be the malt speaking out
restaurant Palate
easy and malty again, very coherent with the nose, but with more spices. Very fine body, closer to 43% than to 40% vol. The sherry takes off after five seconds, with raisins and prunes. Fruitcake and chocolate, and perhaps one Mon Chéri. Do you know Mon Chéri?
timer Finish
medium, drier and a little rougher, with cloves and cinnamon. Gingerbread, perhaps
