Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
거의 색을 남기지 않은 옅은 빛이 잔에 맑게 고인다. 리필 셰리 호그스헤드를 거친 향은 흙과 그을음, 굴 껍데기와 현무암 같은 어두운 광물로 열리고 겨자와 효모의 시큼한 기운이 그 위에 얹힌다. 46도의 입안은 금욕적일 만큼 짜고 쓰며 구운 가지와 레몬 껍질, 피노 셰리의 마른 맛이 차례로 지나간다. 2007년에 병입된 이 위스키의 여운은 메스칼처럼 날카롭고 짭조름하다.

white wine
air Nose
I get the impression that SB 10 is becoming increasingly earthy, dirty, laden with soot, basalt, oyster shells, slightly rancid olive oil, mustard, slags, and various yeasts—everything we love, though it’s perhaps not quite to your new neighbour’s taste, just to be clear. SB 10 will never replace a good, easy Champagne blanc de blancs (not entirely sure about that last remark, S.)
restaurant Palate
austere, intensely saline, peppery, even dirtier on the palate, with striking bitterness and that unmistakable oily texture. Grilled aubergines come close, before lemon peel and a generous glass of fino sherry ride to the rescue. And it’s not the first time one gets the impression they’ve poured a bit of Longrow into the vatting tank
timer Finish
long, with that wonderfully discordant sensation of an oily yet razor-sharp malt. The aftertaste is saline, peppery, mezcal-like, and lemony
