商品説明
[ノーズ]
男性的なイメージでありながら繊細。暖炉の火、老齢の漁師がロープが散らばった船舶の上にいる様子。古いウールのセーター、防水帽、オイルスキン。手には磨いたホイール。
[パレット]
強烈なスモーク、焦がした木、舌を刺すスパイス(カレーパウダー、シナモン、ジンジャー)そしてトフィーのような甘さ。鼻から香りが抜けると、海辺で焼いたサバ、潮だまりと甘い香り。海塩、ラベンダー、レモンも感じられ、スモーキーさと甘さのバランスが絶妙。最終的には親しみやすい味わいだ。
The nose, though subtle, nevertheless suggested mainly masculine images – a died out bothy fire, or that apposite cliché of an old-time sailor on a rope-strewn deck, dressed in old woollens, sou’wester and oilskins; hands on a polished wheel. The palate delivered intense smoke, scorched wood, tongue-numbing spices (curry powder, cinnamon, ginger) and some toffee sweetness. On the reduced nose, the ship had come to shore – beach bonfire barbeque cooking mackerel, rock-pools and perfumed sweets. The palate now found some sea salt, lavender and lemon – the raw masculine smoke much more appropriately balanced by satisfying sweetness – now actually quite easy-drinking.
