Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
퍼스트필 버번 배럴에서 16년을 보낸 우드의 영향이 북아일랜드 부시밀스 특유의 매끈하고 가벼운 과일 향을 한껏 끌어올렸다. 잘 익은 사과와 배, 바닐라와 꿀의 단맛이 먼저 또렷하게 피어오른다. 입에서는 토피와 시트러스, 가벼운 보리가 매끈하게 번지며 56.4도의 힘이 단정하게 받친다. 맑은 황금빛 사이로 과수원 과일과 오크의 여운이 깔끔하고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
chardonnay
air Nose
Incredible. It's hard to tell if it's the bourbon barrel that has added these notes of olive oil to the pink grapefruits and passion fruits, but the result is stunning and takes Bushmills away from the 'all about the fruit' side that I personally adore but which may disturb some fans of more austere, more self-controlled spirits. You will also find a bit of beeswax, orange zest, some wisteria, and sweet woodruff... A few drops of water will reveal the thyme honey that we had already found in the sherry version
restaurant Palate
absolutely irresistible, slightly salty, overflowing with citrus and small aniseed notes, fennel, dill... The whole is taut as a bow string, very clean, very pure. With water: just a bit more honeyed roundness and vanilla, typical of some rather active American oak, 'but not too much'
timer Finish
long, on zests, with some pine needles
