Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들고 코를 가져가면 견과와 향신료, 이끼와 마른 찻잎, 버섯 같은 숲의 향이 차례로 올라온다. 물을 몇 방울 더하면 호두 껍질과 구두약의 뉘앙스로 방향을 튼다. 한 모금을 머금으면 55.4도의 열기와 함께 오크 향신료가 강하게 치고 들어오고 비터 오렌지와 키르슈의 새콤함이 뒤따른다. 호그스헤드에서 온 1997년 원액은 삼킨 뒤 증류주다운 날카로움을 길게 끌고 간다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
the double oak (was it double cask?) only with more depth, nuts, spices, stuff from the woods, mosses, teas, mushrooms, mint… With water: okay. Walnut stain, plywood, MDM, more Ikea, a little shoe polish. That's nicer
restaurant Palate
rather hot, but really spicy, with a lot of oak influence. Nothing wrong with that of course, but the distillate is of no importance whatsoever here and I'd swear you could make this anywhere in this world, from Tasmania to Nova Scotia. Where's the Scotchness? With water: same feelings. Bitter oranges, oak spices, kirsch
timer Finish
rather long, eau-de-vie-ish beyond the fresh oak
