Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 흔들면 홋카이도 아켓시 증류소의 차가운 기운을 닮은 옅은 연기가 잔 위로 피어오른다. 코를 가져가면 퍼스트필 버번 배럴의 바닐라와 풋과일, 가는 피트 향이 또렷하다. 한 모금 머금으면 57도의 어린 기운이 날카롭게 혀를 깨우고 레몬과 훈제 향이 팽팽하게 맞선다. 삼키면 짧은 숙성에도 또렷한 바다 내음과 연기가 혀끝을 따라 흐른다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
light gold
air Nose
we're straight on Islay, with something that feels like a blend of A and CI, at least on the nose. Charcoal, seaweed, tar, ashes, smoked fish, plus a touch that’s both farmy and mentholy with a singular coastal twist that now sets it apart. With water: oysters show up, along with bandages and mercurochrome
restaurant Palate
fat and even closer to A, with a distinct lemony feel and hints of tiny herbs seemingly kilned for days. Then tarred and liquorice-laced olives, and the expected saline touch. With water: swims beautifully, the peat turning even more citrusy and coastal
timer Finish
long, with almond milk and lapsang souchong in the aftertaste
