Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
노즈에서는 벤리악 1994 페드로 히메네스 펀천 27년의 짙은 건과일과 마른 무화과가 가장 먼저 명확하게 드러난다. PX 시럽 같은 진한 단맛과 다크 초콜릿, 가벼운 가죽, 옅은 담뱃잎이 뒤따라 발전한다. 팰럿은 54도의 묵직한 무게가 입을 채우며 잘 익은 자두와 시나몬, 검은 후추가 단단한 구조감을 잡는다. 캐스크 에디션 보틀링 특유의 짙은 균형이 또렷이 드러난다. 피니시는 매우 길고 PX의 단맛과 마른 담뱃잎이 깊게 머문다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
never been a huge fan of peated Benriach, some young ones had even been a little vulgar shall we say, but this utter farminess is kind of spectacular. Mud, then old yard after a heavy shower, cracked pepper, spend grains, sour doughs, Calmac’s porridge… This is very austere indeed, and perhaps only for intellectualists. Not me. With water: mud and porridge, with a little lime juice. Gotta love lime juice
restaurant Palate
the nose was forgettable, this is not. Huge peat, huge pepper, immense tar and bitterness, some lemon, and a bit of pain. This was probably pretty hot in the peat years, but by today’s standards, it’s simply too much. Or for these times’ Obersturmbannführers only. With water: frankly better, that is to say with more lemons and drops of gherkin and olive brines
timer Finish
rather long, salty, dry. Cactus juice
