Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 돌린 뒤 코를 넣으면 허브와 에일, 갓 빻은 맥아의 향이 앞서 나오고 물을 더하면 마멀레이드와 꿀이 뒤늦게 열린다. 한 모금을 머금으면 버번 배럴에서 온 신선한 오크가 넉넉하게 깔리고 시트러스의 산미가 그 위를 팽팽하게 당긴다. 뒤로는 다크초콜릿의 쌉쌀함이 배어난다. 1990년 원액을 20년 채운 이 보틀링은 삼킨 뒤 소나무와 타임 같은 향을 남기며 마무리된다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
so far, it’s close to Jing, the cask make-up seems fairly similar, though perhaps a touch more herbal, with ale and fresh malt coming through. Nothing to complain about at this stage. With water: marmalade and a little honey, this is charming. Perhaps not €150-charming, but charming
restaurant Palate
same remarks, we’re not far from Jing again but there’s fresh oak in fairly generous quantities, though that’s offset rather nicely by citrus which brings a certain tension. With water: the label claims ‘A multisensory myriad of dynamic and evolving flavours are unveiled with the addition of water’, so let’s see. Evolves towards light earthy notes, still oaky and chocolatey. Dark chocolate. The oak remains a little present…
timer Finish
medium length, with a return of the ale and the malt, and a woody-honeyed aftertaste. Pine wood notes, and even a touch of thyme
