Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 퍼스트필 셰리 오크의 초콜릿 소스와 가죽, 담뱃잎, 올로로소의 향이 명확하게 드러난다. 팰럿은 58도의 힘을 실어 굵은 후추와 호두, 정향과 캐러웨이가 단단한 구조감으로 발전한다. 물을 더하면 건포도와 커피 리큐어, 크리스마스 케이크가 균형을 되찾아 또렷이 드러난다. 하이랜드 파크 싱글 캐스크다운 피니시는 쌉쌀한 초콜릿과 후추가 매콤하고 길게 이어진다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
brown amber
air Nose
this is completely different, and you would be forgiven for thinking this is chocolate sauce, had you nosed this blind. You could add that you’re also finding leather and tobacco, as well as notes of tomato sauce and roast jus. And oloroso. With water: a wonderful sherry-y sourness, probably a little challenging to the beginner, but we both aren’t beginners, are we?
restaurant Palate
not as thick as I had thought, but certainly very spicy, hinting at some new oak seasoned with sherry. Big pepper, oloroso-y notes, old walnuts, caraway and cloves, and even more pepper – and chilli. Arrabiata sauce, perhaps? With water: expands and relaxes, that’s cool. More on chocolate, raisins, walnut and coffee liqueur, Xmas cake, sloe, juniper, aquavit…
timer Finish
long, spicy, peppery. Bitter chocolate and myrtle liqueur in the aftertaste
