Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가까이 하면 곡물과 솔진, 재와 석탄의 건조한 노트가 명확하게 드러난다. 이어 훈제 햄과 감초, 갓 깐 호두, 젖은 신문지의 뉘앙스가 층을 이루며 발전한다. 팰럿은 기름진 무게감 위로 후추와 오렌지 리큐어, 정향이 겹쳐지고 100% 엑스버번 숙성치고는 캐스크의 영향이 제법 두드러진다. 46도라는 도수에서 이 정도 밀도는 인상적이다. 피니시는 길고 살짝 쌉쌀하며 미세한 흙내가 복합성을 더한다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ah. This one is a little less expressive than the 10, I must say, and probably a little less expressive than the first edition of the new 18 as well. Grains and pine resin, ashes, coal, farmyard, ham, liquorice, fresh walnuts, then more herbs, parsley and hints of wet newspaper. I just nosed the 1st edition again, it’s indeed a tad ampler than #2
restaurant Palate
more convincing than on the nose, fat, peppery and orangey, but maybe a tad less ‘clean and straightforward’ than both #1 and the new 10 yet again. More cask influence, more orange notes, orange liqueur, cloves and liquorice
timer Finish
long, maybe a tad bitterer now. Traces of bubblegum, tiny-wee dirtiness that make it actually quite complex
