McDonald's Celebrated Traditional Ben Nevis 班尼富 1882年復刻版 (700ml 46%) 班尼富蒸餾廠由Long John MacDonald 建廠於1825年,為蘇格蘭最早擁有生產威士忌執照的蒸餾廠之一。1882年,班尼富蒸餾廠所生產的一款酒款,成功銷售至全世界,總銷售量還遠比今天單一麥芽威士忌的全球銷量還多出很多。當年,班尼富與現已廢廠的尼富蒸餾廠為了紀念聯合推出的新品牌「Dewof Ben Nevis」而推出一款新的單一純麥威士忌,這款酒款在全球市場大受好評。 為了紀念酒廠建立185週年,酒廠決定復興這款一世紀前曾經風靡全球的威士忌。在回溯班尼富蒸餾廠的歷史時,蒸餾廠發現了一些非常有趣且值得延續的蒸餾手藝,幾經努力,班尼富終於成功重現1882年風靡全球風味的威士忌。 行家報告~ 香氣︰能感受到水果和柔和的泥煤所融合的美妙風味,其中最為顯著的是橘皮果醬、杏仁、香草的味道。 口感︰最先感受到的是恰到好處的泥煤味,隨之而來的是出色的黑巧克力味道和被濃縮的水果和水果蛋糕的滋味。 尾韻︰甘甜且持久,在幾分鐘過後,還能再次感受到泥煤的香氛。 得獎紀錄~ 2012年國際葡萄酒暨烈酒競賽(IWSC) 傑出金牌獎 2014年Jim Murray'sWhisky Bible 金牌獎 2015年Jim Murray'sWhisky Bible 95分 |
A special edition whisky from Ben Nevis in celebration of their 185th year. It is an attempt at recreating the McDonald's Traditional Ben Nevis which was a popular dram in the 1880s. Limited to approximately 700 bottles. No age statement. Tasting Note~ Nose: Lots of dry smoke, lots of honey, rich, marzipan, almonds, camphor. A lovely fiery and youthful dram, and I mean that in the best possible way. Palate: Rich and sweet. Lots of honey here, as well as light smoke and unsalted peanuts. Finish: Ginger and dark chocolate. It becomes more dry towards the end, and the peat smoke lingers, mixing quite nicely with the chocolate notes.
