Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 호박빛이 잔 가장자리에 또렷이 깃든다. 셰리 캐스크에서 자란 인치고어 2007, 13년의 시간이 캐스크의 결을 단정하게 옮겨 둔 인상이다. 잔을 가까이 하면 마른 무화과와 오렌지 껍질, 정향이 풀려 나오고, 한 모금 머금으면 흑설탕과 호두, 가벼운 가죽이 미끄러지듯 흐른다. 56.2도의 도수가 셰리의 풍요를 또렷이 받치며, 잔향은 마른 자두와 옅은 담배잎으로 잔잔히 흐른다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
I've always thought Inchgower was an underrated / unnoticed distillate and I can see why Kate and Mark would select such a cask. An immediately very fresh and pure profile, but one that also incorporates quite a bit of character with chalk, white flowers, very light waxy threads, cereals and even wee yellow fruits as well - tiny ripe yellow plums to be precise. I think the word is 'charming'. With water: an almost crystalline and brittle maltiness, sharp cereal tones, lemon peel. This direct and narrow distillate style feels extremely 'Diageo' - which I mean in a good way, it's a style they've perfected I would say
restaurant Palate
nicely sharp, chiselled and quite singular. In some ways it's almost like a totally un-peated Caol Ila (not like the actual 'un-peated' Caol Ilas which are usually rather peaty). Indeed, you do get a feeling of good blanco Tequila as well with these wee green and vegetal touches. Some mineral oil, new leather, soot and soda bread. With water: wee glimmers of aniseed, fennel, peppery watercress and chlorophyl
timer Finish
good length, some white chocolate and cocoa emerging out of nowhere, otherwise still on pure and white things like chalk, pebbles, flowers and freshly starched linens
