Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
호주 태즈메이니아의 헬리어스 로드에서 빚은 이 2016년 빈티지는 5년의 숙성을 거쳐 맑은 황금빛을 띤다. 코에서는 바닐라와 꿀, 잘 익은 살구가 신대륙 몰트답게 화사하게 피어오른다. 입에서는 60.5도의 강렬한 힘으로 캐러멜과 시트러스, 가벼운 향신료가 두껍게 입을 채운다. 여운에는 달큰한 곡물과 옅은 오크의 쌉싸름함이 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
but yes, one of those rare whiskies that feel very oily right on the nose. Sunflower and walnut oils, lamp petrol, coconut wine, pad Thai, white chocolate, karite, suntan lotion… Who needs holidays in the tropics just now? Yours truly! With water: perfect putty, marzipan, sesame oil, and coriander. Bring the prawns! (oops, carried away…)
restaurant Palate
wonderful at this age. Many sauces and dishes from Thailand or why not Bali, garam masala, coriander, more coconut water, puréed avocado perhaps, sour spices… Now it’s a tricky baby, you would believe you could down it like that and forget about the high strength. That would be lethal, almost. With water: perfect. Notes of chicory and caramel make it a tad rounder. Torrefaction
timer Finish
long, extremely well balanced, spicy, fruity, and just ‘Thai’. I agree I need to widen my tasting vocabulary
