Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
소테른 쿼터 캐스크의 작은 통이 어린 글란 아르 모르 원액에 꿀빛 단맛을 빠르게 입혔다. 브르타뉴 해안의 증류소에서 네 해를 보낸 이 프랑스 위스키는 향에서 잘 익은 살구와 꿀, 흰 꽃이 화사하게 오른다. 입에서는 백포도와 보리사탕, 가벼운 바닐라의 단맛이 미끄러지듯 번지고, 46도의 도수가 산뜻한 산미를 또렷이 받친다. 옅은 황금빛 아래로 꿀과 살구의 여운이 부드럽게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it’s got this breadiness that I love so much, and I cannot not think of Sonoma’s rye whiskey. So wholegrain bread, ginger, fennel seeds, salted butter caramel, a touch of brioche, this very peculiar soapiness that’s often to be found in good ryes – and that’s not really soapy, rather soap-like, in a good way. I also find touches of lavender flowers (again, not lavender eau-de-toilette, or air-freshener). I find this very aromatic and really très beau. I mean, very nice
restaurant Palate
creamy, oily, bready, and, above all, very spicy. Much spicier than most American, Canadian, or even European ryes. Very good stuff, provided you enjoy heavy liquorice, caraway, cumin, ginger, poppy seeds, and nutmeg. And cardamom. What also works very well is the sweetness that coats all these spices, the buttered caramel, the faint saltiness, the lavender sweets, the zesty grapefruits and tangerines…
timer Finish
long, with this feeling of pumpernickel covered with Monsieur Bordier’s (oh forget) salted butter. Or his seaweed-flavoured one. Also love the citrusy signature. A minimal touch of sawdust. Lovely bready/spicy retro-olfaction
