Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
홋카이도 요이치의 차가운 바닷바람과 석탄 직화 증류가 이 위스키에 묵직하고 강건한 골격을 빚는다. 잔에는 깊은 황금빛이 감돈다. 10년을 보낸 향은 구운 곡물과 말린 과일, 옅은 훈연이 또렷이 어우러진다. 55도의 입안은 토피와 시트러스, 옅은 피트가 강건하게 번지며 바다의 짠 기운이 받친다. 여운에는 마른 오크와 은은한 연기가 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
starts with some big earthy notes, mushrooms, damp cellar and quite some leather, which is quite different from the 1989 that was fruitier and kind of easier. Quite some walnuts as well in this one, flor, cigar tobacco, shoe polish… And always this earthiness. With water: more on all that plus more liquorice wood, roots, gentian, green cigars (like they have in Indonesia, their smell is very, well, peculiar).While we’re in Indonesia, there’s also quite some cloves. All that is very appealing if you like fino-like profiles
restaurant Palate
rich, creamy, with high oak extraction (ginger, mustard, pepper, curry) and some playful notes of bitter oranges and kumquats coming more and more to the front while it remains very oaky globally. In other words, kind of green (so what?) With water: even oakier. Tea, pepper and cinnamon and just touches of vanilla plus a peatiness that arrives. Peppery peat? Some mustard as well, or dare I mention wasabi?
timer Finish
long, maybe a tiny-wee bit sweeter but always very spicy
