Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 옅은 황금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 천천히 미끄러진다. 코끝으로 가져가면 시즈오카 특유의 풋풋한 청사과와 바닐라, 갓 켠 나무 향이 먼저 인사한다. 55.5도의 첫 모금을 머금으면 어린 3년 원액답게 생기 있는 감귤과 보리 단맛이 혀를 두드리고, 퍼스트필 버번 배럴의 크리미한 바닐라가 뒤를 받친다. 삼킨 뒤에는 알싸한 후추와 옅은 시트러스가 입안에 한동안 맴돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
light gold
air Nose
perhaps a little gingerbread-heavy? I believe some single casks have been purer, crisper… Now good news, the malt is soon to have the upper hand, with some awesome notes of pumpkin bread, buckwheat crêpes, and artisan pilsner. That's all good. With water: perfect. High-precision millimetric fermentary smoke, reminding me, that's true, of that Malt Mill by James MacArthur, not even sure it was genuine. But there…
restaurant Palate
tight smoke and mustard and walnuts and bitter oranges. Perfect touches of Stollen, which is close to that gingerbread that we first found on the nose. Anise cookies. With water: excellent. Glue (yep), gingerbread, sake, anise, caraway and fennel seeds, lemon bread… What's not to like? Very thick body, always a good sign
timer Finish
long, fat, almost sticky, bready…
