Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
빛나는 호박빛이 잔 안에 곱게 비친다. 오크니섬의 하이랜드 파크가 작은 퍼킨 캐스크에서 열네 해를 보낸 이 보틀링은 섬 특유의 헤더 꿀과 옅은 연기를 함께 품는다. 헤더 꿀과 말린 오렌지, 은은한 이탄 연기가 55.8도의 힘을 타고 또렷이 열린다. 한 모금에는 캐러멜과 정향, 짭조름한 훈연이 둥글게 녹아든다. 끝맛은 꿀과 옅은 연기를 남기며 길고 균형 있게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
rosewood
air Nose
precious hardwood resins, teak oil, furniture polish and freshly sawn rosewood. Inhaling the inside of a freshly constructed acoustic guitar. There's some fruits as well such as classic raisins and sultanas, also dark chocolate sauce and some rather fruity black coffee. It escapes the trappings of being overly woody - so far, anyway - by being rather scented and aromatic with all these resinous and polish notes. With water: fruit loaf, madeira cake, sticky gingerbread, cloves, incense. Feels rather highly concentrated even with water
restaurant Palate
active but clean wood with a lot of spices, nutmeg, ginger, salted liquorice, espresso and umami paste. Incorporates more notes of furniture and boot polish, more wood resins and some kind of sticky spiced jam. With water: opens up a little more here, some strawberry wine, Belgian fruit beers, aniseed, herbal cough medicines and a more general feeling of 'Highland Parkness'
timer Finish
long, highly resinous, spiced fruit compote, damsons stewed in armagnac, bitter espresso and wood spices
