Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
오랜 세월이 응축된 깊은 황금빛이 잔 안에 그윽하게 일렁인다. 아일라에서 드물게 피트를 입히지 않는 부나하벤은 호그스헤드에서 서른네 해를 보내며 잘 익은 과일과 꿀, 짭조름한 바다 내음을 섬세하게 피워 올린다. 53.4도의 도수가 입안에서 바닐라와 캐러멜, 견과의 고소함을 매끄럽게 끌어올리고, 해안 증류소 특유의 미세한 소금기가 그 위에 우아하게 깔린다. 오랜 숙성이 다듬어낸 부드럽고 깊은 균형이 인상적이며, 여운에는 꿀과 바다 내음이 길게 맴돈다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
yeah yeah yeah, we're finding this profile that's also to be found in old Tomintouls from similar vintages. Baked and stewed assorted fruits, compotes, prunes, apples, fruit purées, meads and ciders, fresh almonds… Sure this is not Ardbeg, but we're fans. With water: soft wood and fruit juices, especially apple. Very soft spices, perhaps some sweet light paprika? Cinnamon?
restaurant Palate
totally excellent, with apples, almonds and a little coconut at first, then tighter cider apples and gooseberries, well this one's got a business to start with, so to speak. With water: yeah very good, almondy and fruity, with good maltiness and many apples and plums. This works
timer Finish
medium, with a little greener oak about to take over
