Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔 안에 짙은 적갈색이 또렷이 깃든다. 부르크라디 DNA가 36년 숙성 후 보르도 샤토 르 팡 와인 캐스크로 마무리된 디스틸러리 보틀링이다. 코끝에는 마른 베리와 묵은 가죽, 옅은 향나무 향이 풀린다. 입에서는 라즈베리 잼과 다크 초콜릿, 정향이 두꺼운 질감으로 흐르고 41도의 부드러운 도수가 시간의 무게를 받친다. 여운에는 마른 베리와 가죽이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
this one is very different from the Mayflower, much more ‘Bruichladdich’ as we know it that is to say fresher, more ‘coastal’ and with more fresh fruits such as melons and peaches as well as hints of pine resin this time. Yet, there are some similarities such as these notes of old wine that may come from the Le Pin casks and these faint whiffs of wood smoke. No ‘winey’ notes, though, rather a globally very elegant and finely honeyed nose. Very complex! Hints of marshmallows and liquorice allsorts coming through after 15 minutes. Merlot!?
restaurant Palate
there’s more wood in the attack, with a greenness (strong green tea, cinnamon), some mint and even notes of cough syrup but unexpectedly, it’s the fruity part that takes over whereas it’s usually the opposite that happens. Melon compote, tinned peaches, light honey, Turkish delights and wine-poached pears. Then the tannins come back, together with a lot of cinnamon and white pepper
timer Finish
rather long, with a lot of cinnamon once again. Peppermint in the aftertaste
