Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
짙은 적갈색이 잔 속 깊이 가라앉아 빛을 머금는다. 아일라 부나하벤이 퍼스트필 셰리 버트에서 26년을 보낸 이 위스키는 무피트답게 짭조름한 견과와 건자두, 흑설탕의 향이 깊게 솟아오른다. 50.3도의 입안은 무화과와 다크초콜릿, 옅은 바닷소금이 진하게 어우러져 묵직하게 입을 채운다. 오랜 셰리 숙성이 빚은 여운은 가죽과 말린 과일, 그을린 오크로 길고 그윽하게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
perfect cake-y sherry, a style that goes well with Bunnahabhain. Remember all those glorious official bottlings of some 1960s vintages? 1963? 1968? What I’m finding here is some copper (grandma’s kettle), sponge cake, puréed chestnut, ‘smelling an engine’, lamp oil, vinyl, vin jaune or manzanilla, Cuban cigars, pine cones… All that is pretty beautiful! With water: subtle patchouli and leather, old books, mutton suet, chestnuts…
restaurant Palate
yep. Bitter oranges, sour fruits, custard, butterscotch, fig arrak, panettone, kougelhopf, fermenting sweet grapes (raisined wines, straw wine, Carole Bouquet’s Pantelleria…) With water: gets a little more chocolaty and coffee-ish. Orange squash
timer Finish
medium, really all on Panettone, orange blossom water, oriental pastries, coffee…
