Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
화이트 와인처럼 창백한 빛이 잔에 담겨 셰리 캐스크라는 표기를 무색하게 만든다. 향은 재와 풍선껌 같은 달큰함, 풀내와 감귤이 뒤섞이고 기침 시럽 같은 약내가 옅은 연기 사이로 스민다. 46도의 입은 감초 나무와 쓴 허브, 진저 토닉의 쌉쌀함이 이어져 진을 떠올리게 하는 순간도 있다. 열 해라는 짧은 숙성에도 여운은 제법 길게 이어지며 키니네의 쓴맛을 남긴다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
it’s amazing how peaty whiskies are quicker to smell ‘mature’, the peat’s big aromas masking any faint ‘flaws’ that are obviously there in such young malts. So, this is pretty nice, ashy, quite bubblegummy (of course), grassy and slightly citrusy. Whiffs of cough syrup. Medium smokiness
restaurant Palate
once again and for the same reasons, this works better than the unpeated version, even if there’s something slightly strange (something like burnt herbs – oregano?). Liquorice wood, bitter herbs (Jägermeister), ginger tonic, even gin… That’s it, this is rather good gin!
timer Finish
medium long, with added notes of cinchona
