Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
잔을 코끝에 가져가면 처음엔 다소 수줍던 향이 곧 레몬밤과 오렌지로 서서히 피어오른다. 잔을 흔들어 향을 열면 망고와 구아바, 옅은 나무 연기와 민트가 겹겹이 밀려온다. 62도의 강한 힘을 실어 한 모금 머금으면 결정화된 오렌지와 아카시아 꿀, 귤과 금귤이 혀를 채운다. 여과 없이 병입한 롱몬 원액답게, 삼킨 뒤에는 짭짤한 감귤의 여운이 길게 남는다.
AITasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
a little more discrete at first nosing, almost shy, which is unusual with old Longmorns. Takes off after a good two minutes, that is, slowly but continuously. First we have the same notes of lemon balm as in the ‘Castle’, then orangey notes that grow bigger and bigger, then mango, guavas, verbena, even a little muscat grape... All that is coated with wood smoke (or pine cones), mint and even a little eucalyptus, and the whole is probably less decadent than its siblings but just as beautiful on the nose. No water needed. Front and back label (or the other way round?)
restaurant Palate
it’s certainly not slow at the attack, rather punchy, orangey and spicy right at the first drops. A tad more ‘brutal’ than its bros at this stage but the general profile is very similar. A little more oak as well, but the rest is all on crystallised oranges, acacia honey, tangerines and kumquats. Let’s see what happens with a few drops of water: yes, that works, it got rounder, creamier, with added hints of ginger and salt
timer Finish
long, on the same kinds of note. Very salty tang in the aftertaste
