TITLE: Carved and crafted / 精巧な彫像
革の巻かれた木彫りを広げ、新しいプロジェクトを始める準備が出来たところを想像する。味わいには、レーズン、クルミ、シナモンを添えた秋に取れた焼きりんごと、香りのよい各種、木のフレーバー。加水すると、焼きたてのライ麦パンの香りにトチの実と針葉樹の束を組み合わせた、甘くハーブのような花束。味わいは、クルミとレーズン、オーブンで仕上げる前に灰で焼くパンの一種であるポガーチャを使ったトルコのオイルケーキ。
We imagined a wood carver unrolling a leather pouch with all the tools ready to start a new project. On the palate there was plenty of fragrant wood flavours combined with autumn harvest baked apples with raisins, walnuts and cinnamon. After the addition of water, the scent of freshly baked rye bread combined with conkers and conifer cones made for a sweetish, herbaceous bouquet. The taste was that of Turkish oil cake once again with walnuts and raisins as well as pogaca a type of bread which is baked in ashes before being finished in the oven. Following thirteen years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a 2nd fill Oloroso hogshead.
