Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
가득 찬 금빛이 잔에 담겨 삼중 증류한 오켄토션의 매끄러운 결을 먼저 비춘다. 초콜릿과 바닐라, 메이플 시럽에 진저 케이크와 옥수수 시럽, 카푸치노와 코코넛이 얽혀 켄터키를 연상시킬 만큼 달콤한 오크가 앞선다. 46도 아래로는 오크의 쓴 향신료가 주도권을 쥐어 녹차와 생강, 풋고추가 혀를 조인다. 이 로우랜드 몰트는 풋풋한 배 사탕 뒤로 길고 초록빛 쓴 여운을 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
mixed feelings. On the one hand, it's very sexy chocolaty/vanilla-ed whisky with a good measure of maple syrup; on the other hand, it's maybe lost its Scotchness and we're rather wandering through Kentucky. Ginger cake, pinesap, corn syrup, cappuccino, coconut, plum pie... It's actually nice but the sweet oak is really forward
restaurant Palate
a little less sweetly bourbony on the palate in the arrival, then it's the oak's bitter spices that seize control. A feeling of overinfused green tea, a lot of ginger and capsicum, some bee propolis and quite some green pepper. Almost an oak infusion. I had thought this baby would be much sweeter and rounder, Nadurra-style if you will. There are fruity tones, though, around bubblegum and pear drops
timer Finish
long, green, quite bitter
