Tasting note
這款限量聯名單桶,是以豐厚的桶陳風味為主軸:先聞到香草奶油、焦糖太妃與烤橡木的誘人香氣,細聞可捕捉到些微乾果、皮革與淡淡煙燻。入口飽滿而油潤,前段是焦糖與紅糖的甜感,接著橡木辛香、黑胡椒與微微燒焦感逐步浮現,尾韻溫暖且綿長。生產說明:由戶河內與《聖鬥士星矢》聯名推出的紀念款,原桶裝瓶、59%強度,未經冷過濾以保留原始層次。釀造與桶陳:以穀物酒母入桶,使用美式波本酒桶熟成,桶香帶來香草、椰香與燒烤橡木的香氣;釀酒師以低度介入的方式呈現單桶特色。田地與來源:雖非葡萄酒,基酒來源自穀物與生產地的穀農,真正影響風味的是酒桶與倉庫微氣候。飲用建議:建議先醒十到二十分鐘,或加幾滴水讓香氣更開展,配上熟成起司或燒烤肉類能更顯魅力。
This limited-collaboration single cask bottling presents powerful, concentrated aromas and flavours driven by American oak maturation. On the nose: warm vanilla, caramelised toffee and toasted oak, with hints of dried stone fruit, leather and a gentle smokiness. The palate is full-bodied and rich — brown sugar and toffee up front, evolving into wood spice, black pepper and a touch of char from the bourbon barrel. Texture is dense and oily, carrying flavours through to a long, warming finish. Producer notes: a special edition released as part of a pop-culture collaboration; bottled at cask strength (59% ABV) with no chill filtration to preserve character. Winemaking/maturation notes: finished and aged in a single bourbon barrel, which imparts deep vanilla, coconut-like oak and charred spice; minimal intervention from bottlers keeps the cask’s signature profile intact. Vineyard/field notes: not a grape wine — the base spirit comes from grain mashes matured in active American oak bourbon barrels; the terroir influence is from cask provenance and maturation environment rather than vineyards. Best served neat or with a few drops of water and allowed to open for about 10–20 minutes to reveal secondary aromatics.
