Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 요이치 1988 빈티지가 여러 캐스크의 결합으로 빚어낸 가벼운 피트 스모크와 옅은 시트러스, 마른 시리얼이 가장 먼저 두드러진다. 20년 숙성, 55도가 향의 구조감을 단단하게 잡아준다. 팰럿은 훈제 시트러스와 토피, 약한 가죽이 명확하게 발전하고 홋카이도 요이치 해안 풍토의 짠 미네랄이 또렷이 드러난다. 피니시는 길고 옅은 스모크가 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
bizarrely, it’s rather the shiest among them three. A rather round peat, say young Caol Ila ex-rejuvenated barrel or something. I know, a shortcut. Whiffs of iodine, cough medicine, almonds, oysters… With water: no, rather a soft Talisker
restaurant Palate
sweet peat! Lou Reed could have written a song about it. Oranges and grapefruits, as sweets and as fresh juices, plus brine and green pepper, as well as a large teapot of lapsang souchong. With water: same. It’s one of the easiest peaters I’ve tried this year (we’re in 2017, am I not right?)
timer Finish
medium, easy, uncomplicated, perhaps a wee tad cardboardy? There is some salt(iness) but not much
