Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
21년을 보냈다고 믿기 어려울 만큼 노즈가 산뜻하다. 그을음과 파라핀, 밀랍 향이 먼저 두드러지고 인조 가죽을 연상시키는 화학적 뉘앙스가 흥미롭게 뒤따른다. 벤 풀 향이 그 위에 얹혀 신선함을 더한다. 49.4도의 팰럿은 풀 향이 섞인 연기와 기름, 레몬 껍질이 순서대로 발전하며 산미가 구조를 지탱한다. 피니시는 길고 그을음과 광물감, 후추가 남는다. 버번 호그스헤드의 절제된 개입이 성공적이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
I don’t think longer aging did change much, this is as bright and fresh as the official 10. And as sooty, paraffiny, and waxy. There’s also this cool ‘chemical’ thing, is that leatherette? Is that Bakelite? Having said that, it’s also got a little more raw herbalness. Cut grass, perhaps. Or cactus?
restaurant Palate
so good, so good. Bizarrely, it’s a little simpler, and harsher than the 10 OB, and that’s not just the higher strength, but other than that, it unfolds of grassy smoke, oils, lemon peel, and just lemon juice. I find it extremely fresh. The strength is perfect
timer Finish
long, sooty, a tad pungent-like-it-should-be, with a mineral, lemony, and slightly mineral aftertaste. Some pepper too
