Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 금빛이 잔 벽을 타고 천천히 흘러내린다. 향에서는 갓 구운 타르트 타탱과 프랄린이 먼저 피어오르고 데메라라 설탕, 오렌지 껍질, 장작 연기가 뒤따른다. 입에서는 꿀을 듬뿍 넣은 진저브레드처럼 달고 백단향과 크랜베리, 핑크 자몽의 산미가 짜임새를 잡는다. 43도임에도 몸은 두껍고 잼처럼 끈적이는 질감이 인상적이다. 여운은 길게 이어지며 마지막까지 오렌지 마멀레이드의 결이 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
dark gold, so probably older and/or with more sherry, as all are untainted with caramel
air Nose
remember we found a lot of praline in the Amber? Well, this one has even more praline and smells a bit like a tarte tatin fresh from the oven. There’s also some Demerara sugar, more wood smoke than coal smoke this time, orange skin, many dried fruits (and nuts), a little pine sap and honeydew, touches of peanut butter, then more oranges… All that isn’t big, it’s rather a whispering malt but it tells you long and entertaining stories. I have to say it’s a great surprise that does not smell ‘un-old’ at all
restaurant Palate
it is quite spicy as well but it’s not just that, the base is very solid, rich, jammy, honeyed, raisiny… There’s some gingerbread (with a lot of honey!), then a feeling of sandalwood, funny touches of cranberry and pomegranate, a little pink grapefruit and then more wood spices, but never as many as in the Amber
timer Finish
quite long and instead of becoming too spicy or drying, it’s the orangey and jammy side that takes control. Excellent
