Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
이전에 피티드 위스키를 담았던 리필 버번 배럴 안에서 7년을 보낸 흔적이 치치부 2014 원액 전반에 또렷이 새겨져 있다. 노즈에는 옅은 피트 연기와 마른 보리, 시트러스 껍질 향이 두드러진다. 입에서는 그을린 헤더와 꿀, 가벼운 후추가 풀바디로 흐르고 64.5도의 강한 알코올이 단단한 구조를 받친다. 잔에 잠긴 옅은 황금빛 위로 부드러운 피트 여운이 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
cold ashes in a fireplace, or perhaps in a pipe, a garden fire (that's been banned for a long time), always wet chalk, clay, slate, iodine dye... and a lot of ethanol. As a result... With water: it doesn't change much, a bit of fresh tar, more somewhat acrid ashes, a feeling of fresh chlorophyll, then quite a bit of camphor and eucalyptus, finally several types of mint, peppery, icy, etc
restaurant Palate
barbecued banana, green pepper, and a lot of lime. Ashes and bitter cocoa powder bring a certain astringency. It grows, it grows... With water: you could really call this exotic smoke, as if they had used dried banana peel and old bagasse. It works!
timer Finish
long, livelier, and fresher, which always works very well. A very, very slight salty side, like in that other drink we adore and often mention, the manzanilla from Sanlúcar de Barrameda! There are even two or three little pink olives, those that are so sweet, you know
