Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
북극권에 가까운 노르웨이 미켄 섬의 거친 바다 한가운데서 자란 미켄 4년산이다. 잔에는 옅은 황금빛이 어린다. 버번 캐스크가 남긴 바닐라와 보리, 짭조름한 바다 내음이 또렷하게 번진다. 4년의 젊은 숙성에 65.4도의 거센 힘으로, 입에서는 곡물 단맛과 시트러스, 강한 알코올의 열기가 밀려온다. 여운은 짠 해풍과 옅은 오크로 거칠고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
light gold
air Nose
don't even consider nosing this without water. Perhaps barbecued fudge wrapped with hay? With water: fresh root vegetables, celeriac, turnips, kohlrabi, a little ink, peppermint and… hold on, smoked fish? Did they, indeed, throw fish into it? Not that we shall complain, there's fish in old Bowmore and Lagavulin too (I mean, notes of fish)
restaurant Palate
this is almost civilised, with wood essences and earths, plus a porridgey and salty side, but the high ethanol quickly catches up with you. With water: there, yes, finally, we tamed it, this is lovely. Salty, spicy, with notes of hardwood, plus juniper, clove and caraway, as well as a little Chinese fish sauce (I'm sure they make that too up there near the arctic circle), pine oil, peppercorns, some pink grapefruit too…
timer Finish
good, long, salty and citrusy. Citrus is running the whisky world, as we all know
