Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
맑은 금빛이 잔 안에서 산뜻하게 빛난다. 1995년 문을 연 아란 증류소의 초창기인 1996년에 빚어 열여덟 해를 보낸 술로, 잘 익은 배와 시트러스, 옅은 바다 내음이 인다. 입에 닿으면 꿀과 잘 익은 사과, 바닐라가 매끄럽게 번지고 46도가 유연한 균형을 잡는다. 섬에서 자란 보리와 옅은 바다 내음의 여운이 가볍게 가라앉는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
golden amber
air Nose
exactly that, no deep character, rather some elegant, balanced cake-iness, with pastries and breads, oriental pastries, earl grey, honey and maple syrup, roasted chestnuts, Twix, cornflakes… Things like that. Oh and barley. Just saying…
restaurant Palate
just perfect, on black nougat and rancio wine, roasted peanuts (we call them chouchous), toasted brioche and just a wee touch of rubber in the background, suggesting some poorly seasoned 'sherry' wood's been in use as well. No problems
timer Finish
rather long, rather fresh, but this sour and rubbery bitterness is gaining prominence in the aftertaste. Too bad, some well-earned points are being lost here
