향미 프로필
테이스팅 노트
잔을 흔들면 셰리 버트에서 풀린 야마자키 1989의 짙은 호박빛이 잔 안쪽을 따라 천천히 돈다. 잔을 코끝에 가져가면 일본 위스키 특유의 절제된 향신료와 잘 익은 자두, 마른 백단향이 가장 먼저 인사한다. 59도의 한 모금을 머금으면 21년 오너스 캐스크가 무화과 잼, 다크 초콜릿, 옅은 미소 같은 짠맛을 입천장에 부드럽게 비춘다. 삼킨 뒤에도 야마자키 노숙성의 깊이가 길게 따라간다.

deep gold. This starts well
air 아로마 (코)
Zen! Starts minimal, in a great way. Whiffs of chestnuts being roasted, warm praline, probably white chocolate… It’s only after two or three minutes that more fruits come through, first plantains, then ripe mangosteen… And then it’s rather delicate herbal teas. Honeysuckle, lime tree, orange blossom, rosehip… Far in the background, some cedar wood and some incense are slowly burning. And then we have some crème au beurre. All this is very subtle, despite the very high strength. I can’t wait… With water: the most extraordinary digestive herbal tea. Genepy, fennel and verbena stand out. Maybe rosemary (did you know sniffing rosemary can increase memory by 75%? Well so say some websites)
restaurant 맛 (팔레트)
how extreme-oriental is this?! Now it’s also massive, so let’s be careful. What I seem to get is something very spicy, very umami-esque (not making that up), quite unusual… Some kind of spice decoction, perhaps, and I’m wondering whether this wasn’t Japanese oak (quercus mongolica). Quite a lot of ginger and plenty of bitter oranges. Water seems to be obligatory here. So… With water: what’s absolutely stunning here is the Japanity (I do apologise). This is not Scotch-like at all, it’s got plenty of character and it’s got this very specific spiciness that may make it a notch challenging to beginners (but would beginners come across this?) Mentholated oak spices, tropical fruits, leather… The list would be endless
timer 피니시
very long, spicy and sweet at the same time. Gingerbread, oranges, peppermint, cloves, caraway, a little brown sugar, something medicinal (cough syrup) and a little… wasabi. There! And if you insist, I may well find hints of soy sauce
