Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들어 향을 깨우면 야마자키 14년이 버번 호그스헤드에서 익혀낸 또렷한 바닐라와 잘 익은 황도 향을 풀어 놓는다. 잔을 코끝에 가져가면 1993년 빈티지답게 일본 오크의 향긋한 톤이 옅게 일어난다. 한 모금을 머금으면 62도의 도수가 코코넛 오일과 흰 후추의 자극을 동시에 따라간다. 마지막에는 묵은 바닐라의 향긋한 잔향이 입가에 오래 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
this seems to be extremely fine! Obvious notes of palomino fino, old walnuts, petrol, coffee, tobacco… Very hot, though, so let’s not wait and add water. With water: stunning nose now. Not really complex but so wonderfully straightforward, on a magnificent trilogy of resin, peat and pears, and then these notes of walnuts, marzipan and fishing boat (including diesel oil and tar). Yes it’s a tad maritime
restaurant Palate
exceptional profile – or so it seems because once again, this is very hot. We’re no sissy (yeah, yeah) but we need our throat, so… With water: this one is a winner. It’s not that it’s really more complex than its bros but he general feeling is much more satisfying, and the wood extracts rounder. Soft curry, cinnamon, ginger, vanilla and hints of pineapples
timer Finish
rather long, an extension of the palate
