五二Bar&Bistro

今天要來介紹店內深邃又神秘的威士忌阿貝 Uigeadail

阿貝Ardbeg Uigeadail，有著強勁尾韻的54.2％酒精濃度，

它的名字取自於一座山丘湖，一座供應酒廠富含泥煤水源的湖，並以其深邃、豐富和煙燻的複雜特性聞名。

在所有艾雷島威士忌中，雅柏Ardbeg Uigeadail口感最細緻且豐富，它的特點並不在於泥煤味的誇飾

而是以麥芽為主，讓麥芽甜味淡淡透出，創造完美的平衡口感。

《威士忌聖經》中談到阿貝Ardbeg Uigeadail

「從徹底的絲滑明亮，到多層次的味道所傳遞出的繁複，這樣的層級全球僅有一隻手就可數完的釀酒廠可夢想達到此一境界。」

品酒筆記:

Tastin notes

香氣:濃郁的煙燻味，最初為溫暖的聖誕蛋糕，雪松與松針融合著核桃油和紫羅蘭混合著海洋氣息，煙燻煤火與皮革帶來溫暖的香味，最後為蜜糖太妃糖和葡萄乾巧克力做結尾

Nose:Rich and weighty with heady and smoky aromatics. At full strength, the initial aroma is a beguiling mix of warm Christmas cake, walnut oil and parma violets fused with fresh ocean spice, cedar and pine needles falling from the Christmas tree. A smouldering coal fire and the scent of well-oiled leather brings warmth. The sweetness of treacle toffees and chocolate-coated raisins emerge through the smoke. With water, the deep smokiness increases in intensity, reminiscent of a fired Christmas pudding. Rich flowering currants and warm baked banana and walnut bread are served with simmering mocha espresso.

口感:平衡的味道介於甜、辣和煙燻之間恰到好處，最初為甜的聖誕蛋糕滲入口中，接著煙燻味在嘴裡爆發帶著Montecristo雪茄口感

Taste:Full flavoured and rich with a deep mouth-coating texture, the taste is an intriguing balance between sweet, spicy and deep smoky flavours. The flavour is initially sweet. A burst of winter spices sets off a smoky-spicy explosion countered by a sumptuous mid-palate of honey glazed smoked food and chewy treacle. Waves of deep smoky tones and rich aromas build up on the palate like a fine Montecristo cigar.

餘韻:讓人驚艷的長久纏綿，濃郁的摩卡和豐富的煙燻香氣融合在一起

Finish:Amazingly long and chewy with lingering raisiny, deep mocha tones and rich aromatic smoke into the perfectly integrated finish.
