Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 잎사귀 같은 가죽 향과 헤더 꿀, 들꽃이 가장 먼저 두드러지고 건포도와 자두, 호두가 뒤를 받치며, 리필 호그스헤드가 오크를 절제해 스페이사이드다운 섬세함이 온전히 살아 있다. 팰럿은 48.4도로 알싸한 맥아와 쌉싸름한 오렌지, 부드러운 건포도가 흐르고 버섯과 인삼 같은 흙내가 깊게 머문다. 피니시는 길고 상큼하며 오렌지와 자몽, 백후추가 이어진다. 14년 숙성 애버라워로 섬세함과 구조가 균형 있게 짜인 한 병이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
we’re well in the same family, with this typical leafy leather, but it’s also got more fragrant notes, such as flowers (dandelions, peonies) and heather honey ala old HP. Also lovely hints of turpentine and linseed oil, then the expected raisins and plums, plus walnuts. ‘Light’ first fill sherry
restaurant Palate
beats the others fair and square, but that was to be expected. Starts with some peppery malt, goes on with bitter oranges and ‘soft’ raisins, and keeps unfolding with small earthy touches, mushrooms, a touch of ginseng, a little gentian… That’s all very nice
timer Finish
long, and zestier, more reminiscent of some indie unsherried Aberlours. Oranges, pink grapefruits, white pepper, perhaps one bay leaf. The spicy leather is back in the aftertaste
