Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
세 번 증류하는 오큰토션 특유의 맑고 가벼운 결이 1999년 빈티지에서 또렷하다. 잔에는 옅은 밀짚빛이 산뜻하게 어리고, 향에는 갓 자른 풀과 레몬, 바닐라의 단내가 깨끗하게 번진다. 17년 숙성을 거친 55.5도의 입맛은 시트러스와 보리향, 가벼운 꿀을 깔끔하게 풀어내며 입안을 가볍게 적신다. 여운은 산뜻한 과실과 화이트 페퍼의 결이 또렷이 깃들어 흐른다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
makes the two previous ones round and soft. This one cuts you in two halves, with an extreme, very cactussy (come on!) grassiness, and twenty wheelbarrows full of lime and green grapefruits. With water: becomes gentler, very fruit-salady. Cut apples, pears, oranges, tangerine sweets
restaurant Palate
lemon juice mixed with the sharpest green tea, plus a dash of wasabi powder. What's great is that you can count your vertebras while it goes down. One, two, three... With water: I'm not sure anybody ever tried to distil lemon. I've tasted orange eau-de-vie, and it was a little nasty. This is way nicer!
timer Finish
medium, ultra-zesty, clean, fresh, getting extremely lime-y
