Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 흔들면 옅은 짚빛이 가볍게 잔 안쪽을 적신다. 코를 가까이 가져가면 라프로익다운 소독약 같은 강렬한 피트와 타르, 그 아래로 바닷소금과 레몬이 또렷이 깃들어 있다. 19년을 채운 이 위스키를 한 모금 머금으면 59.6도가 혀를 강하게 데우며 잿내 섞인 훈연과 보리 단맛이 부딪친다. 삼키면 모닥불 같은 그을음이 혀끝을 오래 따라온다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
very much in the style of cask #5920, which is normal I suppose, although there is a little more earth and wet sand, as well as fresh almonds. Very, very nice, maybe the most complex of them all (I mean, the bourbons). With water: ditto. Nice notes of a mineral Riesling (smoked, ha ha)
restaurant Palate
indeed, the richest, the most citrusy and simply the most pleasing. Icing sugar and limoncello on a bed of ashes. With water: lovely profile, not far from the official CS in my opinion but maybe a tad ashier
timer Finish
long and very ashy. Walnut skins? Earth and roots in the aftertaste, as well as a little more lemon
