Macallan Edition No.3 麥卡倫 2017年度限量 Editon No.3 (700ml 48.3%) 麥卡倫釀酒大師Bob Dalgarno與傳奇香氛大師Roja Dove攜手合作,共同打造出麥卡倫年度限量系列2017限定款Edition No.3。傳奇香氛大師Roja Dove將其聞名於世的天賦帶入創作過程中,在Bob的帶領下為麥卡倫在各種不同橡木桶中熟成的原酒,定義出他所體驗到的個性與香氣。歐洲橡木桶與美國橡木桶Edition No.3層層綻放的金色香氣,新伐橡木和柑橘香、香草冰淇淋和鮮甜清脆的青蘋果香,與麥卡倫經典的濃郁乾果氣息呈現了雍容又優雅的完美平衡。 行家報告~ 色澤︰天然大麥金色 香氣︰首先湧上來的是香草冰淇淋、新鮮橡木和優雅的花香。在生薑、肉桂和肉荳蔻忽隱忽現時,柑橘精油帶來微妙的富麗感。香草賦予它甜香味,引導出柑橘類水果香,隨後呼喚巧克力現身。最後由拋光橡木畫下柔和的句點。 口感︰由甜香水果、香草和濃郁的水果蛋糕組成,並帶有微微的杏桃、洋梨和清脆的青蘋果香。生薑和肉桂與淡淡的橡木樹脂餘韻形成完美平衡。 尾韻︰餘韻綿長、甜美而滿溢著果香,久久繚繞不散。 |
Edition No.3 is the third in a series of annual limited releases and result of a collaboration between Master Whisky Maker, Bob Dalgarno and Master Perfumer, Roja Dove. Together they embarked on a sensory journey of discovery as Roja imparted his remarkable knowledge of aroma to inspire the selection of distinctive oak casks. This characterful single malt is an exploration into approach to whisky making, exposing the detail of its creation by Master Whisky Maker, and offering true transparency. Tasting Notes~ Colour: Barley Gold. Nose: Reminiscent of a fine fragrance, the nose leads with vanilla ice cream, fresh cut oak and delicate florals. Orange oil provides subtle grandeur while ginger, cinnamon and nutmeg flit in and out in various guises. Vanilla imparts sweetness, leading citrus fruits forward then allowing chocolate to show. Burnished oak delivers a soft ending. Palate: Sweet fruit, vanilla and rich fruit cake with suggestions of apricot, pear and crisp green apple. Hints of ginger and cinnamon are balanced with a light resinous oak finale. Finish: Long, sweet and fruity, leaving a lasting impression on the senses. |
