Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 금빛이 잔에 무겁게 담긴다. 버번에서 칠 년, 프레시 마르살라에서 두 해를 더 보낸 이력이 향에서 그대로 읽힌다. 끈적한 검은 과실의 단맛과 갈색 빵, 석탄 연기와 자두주가 차례로 열린다. 58도의 술은 입에서 기계유와 부드러운 왁스, 잦아든 피트의 잉걸불을 앞세우고 분홍 후추와 백단이 뒤따른다. 여운은 중간 길이로 생강과 계피의 매운 기가 또렷이 깃들어 있다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
feels like rather sweet Marsala involved here as there's an immediate sticky dark fruit sweetness going on. Brown breads, sweet ruby ales, coal smoke, honey cake and plum wine. Also wee touches of treacle and hessian. With water: touches of blood orange and grenadine now, also some pink grapefruit. Feels like it's becoming overall a little fruitier and lighter on its feet
restaurant Palate
more assertive distillery character here with this nice mix of mechanical oils, soft waxes, peat embers and dried herbs. Some pink peppercorns, sandalwood and chai tea impressions too. Fun and rather complex in fact. With water: becomes a tad more bitter and a bit greener now, goes towards lemongrass, chlorophyll and herbal teas
timer Finish
medium in length and nicely peppery with ginger and cinnamon
