Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 코끝에 가져가면 일본 치치부의 정갈한 과일 향과 옅은 향나무 내음이 먼저 다가온다. 잔을 흔들면 퍼스트필 버번 배럴에서 온 바닐라와 유자, 풋사과가 맑게 피어오른다. 58도의 한 모금을 머금으면 9년이라는 짧은 숙성이 무색하게 또렷한 단맛과 향신료가 혀를 채운다. 삼킨 뒤에는 청량한 시트러스와 백단 같은 여운이 깔끔하게 사그라든다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
LOL. Rose petals, citric hops (citra), kiwis and litchis, pink grapefruits, ylang-ylang, and really, perfume for wealthy older ladies. It’s extremely singular. With water: wha-a-at? Huge musk, really. It’s extremely musky. Perhaps some pecan pie, and that red thing they make in Lyons, tarte aux pralines. Google is your friend - just hope they would pay their taxes
restaurant Palate
really, it’s marc de gewurztraminer, blended with small-berry white muscat wine. Why not, I agree… With water: totally LOL, and totally on muscat wine. Would love to hear about the kind of hops they’ve used to flavour that IPA
timer Finish
long, very fruity, really not bad, just extremely sweet – and yet not sugary at all
