Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 몇 바퀴 돌린 뒤 코를 가져가면 퍼스트필 포트 파이프에서 온 붉은 베리의 단내가 먼저 인사하고 뒤이어 풍선껌 같은 화사함과 바닐라 크림이 올라온다. 한 모금을 입에 물면 캐러멜과 달큰한 와인의 맛이 혀 가운데를 채우고 키위와 흰 과육 과일의 산미가 그 위를 스친다. 1993년 증류해 12년을 보낸 이 보틀링은 46도에서 균형을 잡아 마시기 편하다. 삼킨 뒤에는 오렌지 주스 같은 단산미가 짧게 맴돈다.

ah, this batch is very different. Always these perfumy smells and bubblegum, but now there’s also lots of hot milk with caramel and vanilla cream. Not too bad!

again it’s better than the 1999. More defined, with more body. Caramel, sweet wine, vanilla cream, white fruits and kiwi, orange juice… Not un-enjoyable at all, I guess the next batches will be even better. 60 points . CRAZY WHISKY ADS - JIM BEAM BLACK'S ANSWER TO BLACK VELVET ANSWERING EVAN WILLIAMS ;-) Remember again... A few days ago (see January 31) Black Velvet was telling us that ' A smoother taste comes of age ' while showing us a beautiful young (but not too young) woman dressed in fur. Ah, smoothness, that's the thing, it appears, and Jim Beam Black won't argue. These two men are discussing - in small white letters: ' Smooth, mellow and refined. Actually we're talking about the bourbon ', while assuming we all saw the girl seated at the back first. Sure the ad is nicely composed for that - the only face on the ad and all that - but hey, the first thing we saw was the glass of whiskey, wasn't it? February 1, 2005 MUSIC - Recommended listening: Cuban born Canadian king of the 10-hole diatonic harmonica Carlos del Junco plays an astounding jazz-blues-funk piece called Funny thing - mp3 . Whether it's funny or not, I don't know, but very good it is! And the guitars... wow! Please buy Carlos' music.
