Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 호밀의 향신료가 먼저 두드러지고 제비꽃과 강황, 데킬라를 떠올리게 하는 흙내가 뒤따르며 헤더 꿀의 단맛이 발전한다. 팰럿은 건조하게 시작해 톱밥과 흰후추, 정향, 육두구가 또렷하게 드러나고 볶은 커피와 카카오로 이어진다. 피니시는 길고 향신료와 흙내가 깊게 머물며 끝에 마멀레이드와 약간의 소금기가 비친다. 1987년 병입 헤븐 힐 버번의 드라이하고 호밀다운 골격이 명확하게 드러난다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this nose is lovely too, rather gentle, really full of rye, touches of violets, turmeric, some funny hints of tequila, then dill and fennel seeds, heather honey, warm caramel, cinnamon roll, and more earthy agave/tequila. What I really like here is that it’s earthier than other ryes, which I sometimes find too ‘round’ and lacking responsiveness, if you see what I mean
restaurant Palate
starts dry, on sawdust and many spices, including white pepper and cinnamon indeed. It is very bready too, and would rather go towards caraway, cloves and nutmeg, then ground coffee and raw cocoa. The rye is very obvious, I’m also finding notes of buckwheat (not distilled buckwheat) and some wood ashes. It’s really dry, not a style that I dislike
timer Finish
rather long, spicy, earthy and grassy, with only a little marmalade and lavender sweets in the aftertaste. And a little salt too
