Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
퍼스트필 아메리칸 오크와 버진 오크, 프랑스 오크, 뱅 두 캐스크가 어우러진 5년의 숙성이 워터포드의 바이오다이내믹 보리를 다채롭게 감싼다. 코에는 잘 익은 배와 보리죽, 들꽃 같은 향이 산뜻하게 피어난다. 입에서는 버진 오크가 남긴 바닐라와 향신료, 달콤한 와인의 뉘앙스가 50도의 힘을 타고 또렷이 번진다. 아일랜드 곡물 특유의 두꺼운 질감이 받쳐주고, 옅은 밀짚빛 끝에 꿀과 시트러스의 여운이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
there's this loud and clear element that's rather crucial in my book, grains and the breads made thereof. I'm rather reminded of one of these long breakfasts you may have in posh hotels in Mittelleuropa, where they would have dozens and dozens of different breads on the tables (and champagne, plus usually terrible coffee, but that's another story). Lovely vanilla and plantain in the background. So, keyword: bread. With water: gets a tad more floral, with notes of fresh walnut cake and even a little chardonnay
restaurant Palate
the oak spices are talking first (curry, cardamum, cinnamon, caraway) then a few pencil shavings – cedarwood – and then sweeter fruits and grains. Bananas of course, touches of guava… With water: water makes it oilier and would bring out a little more lemon. Zests
timer Finish
rather long, perhaps a little oak-forward but that's nothing since in this very case, oak's the next flavour after bread. Milk chocolate and caramel in the aftertaste. Lactones C7 and C8 (gee…)
