"...Mouth: Dense, chocolatey, deeply earthy and resinous on arrival. Almost salty! You have these wonderfully farmyard and mineral notes with lychee syrup, quince paste, umami, oyster sauce, rancio, VORS palo cortado and more dense coffee flavours like fresh espresso. Continues with dried herbs, caraway, a hint of soot and some subtle and rather beautiful waxiness. Finish. Long, sappy, earthy, resinous and herbal. Some final flickers of peat, wood embers, engine oil, old medicine and an eventual wink of green and citrus fruits." (5 stars-Whiskyfun)

1 bottle


「......口味:一口喝下感覺稠密,有朱古力、濃濃的泥土和樹脂味,幾乎嘗到鹹味!你會感受到奇妙的農家和礦物味、荔枝糖漿、榲桲醬、鮮味、蠔油、波特陳釀、極陳雪莉酒,及較濃的咖啡味如新鮮的意大利特濃咖啡。接下來是乾香草、香菜、淡淡的煤煙及一些微妙而優美的蠟質。收結悠長,豐富樸實,樹脂和草藥味。最後閃出泥煤、木燼、機油、古藥,並散發青草及柑橘水果味。」( Whiskyfun:5星)
