Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 가볍게 돌리면 구운 밤과 파이프 담배의 부드러운 냄새가 먼저 다가오고 밀랍과 프로폴리스가 뒤를 받친다. 코를 더 대고 있으면 다크 초콜릿을 입힌 오렌지 껍질이 또렷이 떠오른다. 한 모금 삼키면 검은 후추가 먼저 자리를 잡고 캐러멜라이즈한 피칸과 볶은 헤이즐넛이 이어진다. 물을 더하면 전나무 꿀과 페퍼민트가 얼굴을 내민다. 삼킨 뒤에는 진하게 우린 홍차와 코코아가 오래 남는 퍼스트필과 리필 셰리의 조합이다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
rich gold
air Nose
softer, rounder, and more immediately inviting than the ‘iconic’ Speyside, perhaps more suited to the lounge than the countryside. Roasted chestnuts, gentle pipe tobacco, a hint of floral liqueur (mullein), followed by delicate notes of beeswax and propolis. Then come the orangettes – candied orange zest dipped in dark chocolate – a proper indulgence. With water: touches of mint, camphor, and eucalyptus add a refreshing lift
restaurant Palate
black pepper takes charge straight away, soon joined by caramelised pecans and roasted hazelnuts. Another sinful treat. With water: back to candied oranges, alongside fir honey and a few drops of peppermint liqueur
timer Finish
long, with intensely steeped black tea asserting itself once again, accompanied by its trusty partner, pepper. Cocoa and mint linger in the aftertaste
