Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
엑스버번과 엑스셰리 캐스크의 조합이 어린 5년 숙성에도 아드나호의 골격을 또렷하게 잡아 준다. 아일라 신생 증류소다운 선명한 피트 훈연 위로 셰리의 건과일과 버번의 바닐라가 함께 피어오른다. 50도의 도수가 입안에서 그을린 시트러스와 흑설탕, 바닷소금을 산뜻하게 끌고 간다. 옅은 황금빛 뒤로 스모크와 과실 단맛이 어우러진 여운이 깔끔하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
but of course. Ardnahoe has been remarkably quick to express its Islayness (aye?) and to make sure its whisky oozes (aye again?) the island. Very fresh, with a nod to its neighbour across from the Paps of Jura, offering peated grist, virgin wool and soot. With water: grapefruit and chalk
restaurant Palate
rather perfect, though absolutely crammed with ashes. With water: the oloroso still sits high, though it’s true there’s only some of it, and only ‘predominantly’. From 51% upwards, that’s predominant, isn’t it? This terminology may go down in the annals of malt whisky history, I tell you (right?)
timer Finish
fresh, long, uplifting and, indeed, exuding Islay. Pears, lemons, oysters and tar in the aftertaste
