Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
갈색이 도는 앰버를 확인하고 코를 낮추면 금속 광택제와 낡은 동전, 오래된 구리 주전자 같은 향이 먼저 밀려든다. 한 모금 머금으면 담뱃잎과 감초, 얼그레이가 층층이 지나가고 무화과와 대추가 뒤를 받친다. 삼킨 자리에는 카푸치노와 마멀레이드가 중간 길이로 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
brown amber
air Nose
time-warp effect, we're in 1990. The sherry's pretty sublime, these notes of metal polish, old coins, old copper kettle and all that are fantastic, these tobaccos are lovable (old plain Dunhill's, shall we say) and so are these bouillons full of marrow, mushrooms, lardo di Colonnata, leek, and perhaps even garlic. A tiny touch. Beyond that, we'll find the usual raisins, figs, dates, plum pudding and fruitcake. Brilliant
restaurant Palate
I don't know why, this reminds me of the old 30 'blue label and blue box', but this M is a little better. Tobacco and liquorice, earl grey, Jaffa cake, orange blossom water, oriental pastries, a thin slice of kougelhopf, while we cannot not mention also panettone this time again. Certainly also fortified mustos, pineau and such, and old rancio, Rivesaltes, old sweet grenache, Maury… Anyway, you see what I mean
timer Finish
medium, on ultra-classic 'sweet' sherry, a little 'cream' perhaps. Cappuccino and marmalade in the aftertaste
